Wanted: 1/72 Typhoon or Oscar

[granlund]

I am a graduate research assistant working on maneuverability of submarines. This webpage describes some of the equipment that I use. http://www.aoe.vt.edu/research/facilities/dyppir/
I would like to get a hold of a plug or mold for a 1/72 Typhoon or Oscar to manufacture a wind tunnel model for my research.

I have a 1/48 scale plug for a Seawolf to trade for the Typhoon/Oscar plug/mold.

Hi,

you might be joking,

Hi,

you might be joking, as I would expect a graduate research
assistant to be able to spell maneuverability

but a typhoon hull in 1/100 scale can be had from
Alexander Engel KG (for a hefty price).


look here

Yeah, go Hokies... this fall.

Yeah, go Hokies... this fall. Hope they do better without Vick.

1/100 scale Typhoon is too small for me. I need the model to be ~2-2.2m long. Then it's the whole issue with research budget. I either have to build the whole thing myself or trade away the plug I have for an already made one.

I could also be interested

I could also be interested in 1/48 scale Akula or Sierra if anyone has a plug or mold.

maybe you should enquire at

maybe you should enquire at another forum as well ]the subpirates[/url]

It has a large amount of data on russian subs, so it might attract
people who have what you want.

There's a fella in Australia

There's a fella in Australia that sells 1/72nd scale Typhoon hulls.

I think he's a Sub Committee member too.
