I just recently sent an email to the RESIGN SHIPYARD at sales@resinshipyard.com and encouraged them(a little push/shove) keep working on their 1/350 scale Canadian VICTORIA class submarine, as I am most anxious to get the model kit. I was hoping that you could also contact them, and do the same. Do any of you have any experiences with the resin shipyard, are they a good outfit? Also, I think it's great that Canada finally got themselves a working submarine(and three more on the way this year). This ex-british Upholder class had been plauqed with problems, but Canada finally got all four of them going. This HMCS Victoria sank a target ship last summer with a mark 48 torpedo at the RIMPAC 2012 navel exercises.
I think it's shocking that Canada has only four submarines, when they have such a huge amount of coastline, and the entire artic circle to the north of them, especially with Germany and Russia handing out all sorts of submarines all around the world. If they can't make their own, then I think that Canada should turn to Germany or the USA to build for them a deisel/electric submarine that is second to none. Even try to
improve on the Sweedish GOTLAND, or Germany's type 212 with AIP.
If any of you know where else one can get a Canadian VICTORIA class submarine in 1/350 scale, please let us know, as far as I know, the resin shipyard is the only one working on this.
Well, anyhow, good luck to the Canadian navy, keep your chin up, and I hope you get at least 10 mores years out of the VICTORIA class of submarines.
