That is a very strange vessel, I have never seen anything like it, let alone hearing about it.
It am not able to find any clear information of this vehicle.
Any links with more information?

Is this mod still being worked on? Because I'm happy with the new version of the Gneisenau.
It helps with Alternate reality scenario's I have created in ME2.

I have been looking around for more ships that never were for you to create, but its quite hard finding one that won't require a new model.

What about this:

The Kriegsmarine decided, however, to complete the ship identically to Admiral Hipper on 14 November 1936.[2] Her keel was laid on 2 August 1937,[3] under construction number 941.[1] The ship was launched on 1 July 1939, but was not completed.[4]

That might be arrangeable, I will look into the Admiral Hipper's model, and see if I can find an 8 inch gun that meets the appearance of the one in the picture, the Kent Class Cruiser has guns that look of the appearance of the one it the picture.

And I could forward my work to Cybermat so It could be featured into the mod.

But that's if I get anywhere.

I don't have the skills to edit the super-structure, but I might be able to create something with the same armament, speed, etc.

Hola JapLance.

saludos paisano.

[Logan20142]

Okay, is there anyway to make the Bismarck a player ship? I miss having the bismarck in silent hunter 4, but I wish it was compatible with silent hunter 5.

Logan20142! My first visit to this thread: I backtracked some of the sites above: no joy but encountered Tragflügelboot Projekt....WOW! what were they thinking

Another project based on Wendels initial small fast attack boat design, was a submergible hydrofoil. Equipped with a Schnorchel and periscope, the small vessel should have been able to set itself on the ground of the sea in shallow waters.
The operational pattern behind this idea was the following:
With a target approaching this position, the hydrofoil should surface by blowing its dive tanks and make a fast attack on the enemy ship. After that it should disengage at top speed.

speed. http://strangevehicles.greyfalcon.us/TR.htm These could hit 47 knots with engines... These break 50 knots without engines(alright giant cabon-fiber airfoils are engines)>The WWII German sailors union demanded 'life insurance policies to be on their ' foil boats 'and I don't blame them! I won't even get on an America's Cup boat: too damn dangerous???!!> They don't call the hydrofoil a 'daggerboard' fer nuthin' ...Gotta love that bridge Truly: nuthin' good goes outta style BBY!
