Hi! Can you create this mod?

I would also like it if someone could model the GUPPY sail even if it only had cosmetic effects :D.

But personally I would prefer this guppy model

It will be useful in the cold war mod... Regarding which GUPPY series, i'd say all of them. From the first to the third. Since the fleet boats remained nearly unchanged in their structure and overall performance, we could add theese upgrades like new conning towers.

Or we could use new, updated, subs as new vessels with slightly improved performances (like submerged speed/endurance).

I hope someone will make it.

I didn't know, a sub class was named guppy, so for a second, this came into my mind: :lol:

A sub class was not named Guppy, GUPPY stands for Greater Underwater Propulsion Power Program (Though that would by GUPPP, But whatever)

GUPPY is, in fact, a nickname for G.U.P.P.P...it was a program of general improvement of older fleet boats (gatos and balaos and also tenches) to make the compliant with the newest submarine tecnologies developed during and shortly after WWII.

Who knows edit in 3d:D ?

Where were these picture taken? I don't recognize anything in the background.
Great Pics, by the way.

Take from Wikipedia.

well if you use the cammo pattern and colors of the real guppy, it would surely confuse the enemy who saw it. :rotfl:

Second photo was taken in Istanbul. See the Hagia Sophia in the background.

Well, the GUPPY mods were done from '47 to '49, an interesting time when the US was starting to use subs for more clandestine spy ops...

News?

They probably justified it by saying it was obviously GUPP-P, which would let it be pronounced "Guppy."

"The "Y" was just added at the end to make a nice-sounding word."

I hope I was helpful enough for y'all.:) ...and that I didn't insult someone...:oops:
