Hi there captains..

Just finished the Salmon.. So my next project is the S-Class boats.
I have some pictures from navsource.org site. But non close shots.

If you have some nice S-Class pictures, please show them here or mail them to me dennis@oldsmobile1958.com

What I need are pictures where you can see how the hull structure is mounted.
Where are the rivots ?? etc..

Thanks,

Foo

anyway did anyone noticed that the water reflections " caustic " dont work for the s-18 ?

the best one i found ... http://www.history.navy.mil/photos/s...sh-s/ss155.htm
think the color is black and it is in a very good shape
its the S-44 (USS-155) it was sunk by a japanese destroyer




BTW : NOTICE THE SIZE OF THE BOW WAVE ON EVERY PICTURE ?

Great series of photos. Looks like the S-44 underwent quite an overhaul sometime between Feb 43 and June 43 - air and surface search radars and a 20mm AA gun. Also, the bridge was cut down in the front for the AA mount. Doesn't the game model put it astern? It also looks like the bow antennas were removed.

I don't think those photos were ever released to the public - didn't the Navy redact anything that clearly showed radar masts?
