Currently, The only one that comes to mind is the Engle Typhoon.A 1/100 scale out of England. There used to be a Copeland Typhoon in 1/96.But it has been some years that has been out of production.
Engle can be found pretty easy by poking around on the internet.It may also be listed on the vendors page of this website.

I have contacted those guys

I have contacted those guys for some info on shipping and pricing for both the Typhoon and the Akula, and their response was fast, they even gave me a german / english translation for the parts that come with the rudder assembly for the Akula , definatly be buying stuff from them.

You can purchase the hull

You can purchase the hull and WTC that Engel use direct from Maquette for $250, plus $150 postage.

This will prove more cost effective for those who wish to make their own ballast system.

Thanks a lot guys, but

Thanks a lot guys, but I tried to contact the mmcteam in Tunisia by mail and by fax but they dont't answer.
I think that the faxnumber on the website is wrong or the company doesn't exist anymore.
I tried Engel and he was very helpfull but sells only the hull for about 650$ excl shipping.
So if there is somebody who can help me contact the guy in Tunisia I will be very gratefull

Ahh, okay.

For $650 I'd rather

Ahh, okay.

For $650 I'd rather go for Norberts Bruggen's hulls. They are more accurate.

The bow on the Maquette/Engel boat is too sharp.

There is a complete 1/72

There is a complete 1/72 Scale kit of the Typhoon avaliable in Australia.
The Contact is Alan Pew of APS models. Alan's Typhoon kit was tooled by Cameron Glassford of Model Submarine Systems Australia (MSSA) and is a great kit.
Alan does not have a website, his expertese is in kit manufacturer and is not "computer perosn". Alan does respond to faxes and phone calls pretty fast.
His number which is a phone and fax is +61-2-4972-5825. He is located in the Australian Eastern Time Zone. So try not to wake him in the middle of the night.
He is a good operator and I have bought several hull kits from him over the years.
Hope that helps
