This is the fiveteenth of a serie of units for Regia Marina, a major work who started after i've start a collaboration with flush deck, in order to "homogenise" various italian warships i've released during a lot of years, and assure a standard quality level for all of them.

This unit can also plit in two parts if torpedoed in some points.

Pack include a multiskin unit, with 5 different skins, one all-gray and five camo.

As you can see, i've tryed to improve units, adding 3D details like doors, portholes, cables, rails, stairs, liferats, fixing small design flaws, taking care of "historically accurate" side, etc.
The goal is have a standard level for all my Regia Marina units released until now, and future releases.

Giving it radar and Allied levels of hydrophones and sonar was really evil of you, VonDos :D .

Thank you so much, mates! :salute:

Glad you like the result, my mate! :up:
Well, historically the had sonar and hydrophones, they were "late war products" and were really badass with 10 × depth charge throwers.

Extra features: "these ships were equipped with electric 'creep' motors with an endurance of 16 nautical miles (30 km; 18 mi) at 6 knots (11 km/h; 6.9 mph) for silent running while engaged in anti-submarine searches. Overall, they were well-designed for operations in the Mediterranean and were successful in their role."

Really small, but deadly :yep:

Best regards,

SUPERB NEW UNITS!!!
THNAK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR EFFORTS!
