balao plans

derekb525 · 12-20-07, 02:28 PM

I'm trying to find a set of blueprints to make a 3d model of a balao or a gato class sub. I've looked everywhere and I can't find anything. I even went and bought a scale model of the lionfish thinking there were plans, but no. I tried getting a screenshot of them from SH4 but it doesn't do the trick. Any help would be nice thanks.

Some sources, especially the bottom link (scroll down and you'll find a plan book for the Balao that's probably good enough to build a real one):
