[REL] U-869 U-Who IXC Skin

[Friction150]

What's up everybody? I've got a new skin ready to download. The U-869 "U-Who?" skin for the IXC. This skin is plain, without camo, as the U-869 was. I believe there was a skin that was somewhat similar to this, a year or two ago, but this skin is unique and has different colors on it. Please read the readme for the interesting story of this U-boat.


The only picture I could find of U-869 to work off of.

I really appreciate the pic feedback and kind words. Nice German crest you have on the side, I like that. :up:

Nice looking skin.:up: The emblem looks like the Nazi party decal that was applied to Waffen SS helmets until 1941-42 (I forget exactly when they dropped it).
