Thanks, it was a interesting/challenging/fun patrol. Going to see if can survive to end of war in the Narwhal. Can already tell it is going to be tough lol. Of course as time goes on will be involved in more special missions, making opportunistic attacks vs out hunting convoys etc, as the real boats did. Big, slow diving, sluggish, limited depth boat, can only imagine trying to use it in 1944/45 under heavy depth charge attack or on surface at night with escorts around or lol. Sure will found out soon.

Next patrol is May 1943, transporting/landing Army scouts to/on Attu as part of Operation LandCrab (invasion of Attu) in May 1943.

Unfortunately, it does not appear so. Looks like the donation Narwhal, as a custom built model, has a custom built conning tower and it only uses the early war model. However, I am working on solving that, the pseudo narwhal in TMO does have the cut down conning tower, hopefully will work with the donation model
