Default 1/144 Kilo Class Submarine

Since my wife has bought herself some new jackets and stuff for the kids I have decide to buy myself the Trumpeter Kilo.

It is just over 500mm long so should look good once finished.

I'll start posting pics as soon as it arrives and I figure out what I want to do to it.

Going to be delayed. Not in stock....hopefully won't me more than a couple of weeks.

Then I'll start the build thread.

If anyone can get me a decent picture of a Kilo stern looking from above that will be great.

It looks good when finished. In fact it probably has the best finish looks for modern submarine model and the size helps too.

There are a few things wrong from photos of different models but nothing I can't fix.

I have this model. I love the RC conversion for it. Too bad rc subs are so expensive.
