The first submarine commissioned in this class was the ill-fated Thresher, and so the class was known by her name. The maximum was 23 weapons, or theoretically 46 mines (Mk 57, 60 or 67), or a mix of mines, torpedoes and missiles.

Initially they had Mark 37 torpedoes, but later they were replaced with the far better Mark 48 plus UGM-84 Harpoon (4, replacing the same number of Mk-48s) and UUM-44 SUBROC (6, later reduced to 4 when Harpoon was adopted).

The ships had torpedo launchers moved to the middle of the hull, so leaving free a lot of space for the huge BQQ-2 sonar system (BQQ-5 with modernized ships), a new and powerful detection low-frequency sensor. Their hulls were more effectively streamlined and had smaller sails, so while they used the same reactor plant as the Skipjacks, their larger size did not reduce their speed. The use of a new alloy steel, HY-80, increased the boats' test depth, and a redesign of the engineering spaces, with the turbines supported on 'rafts' that were suspended from the hull on sound damping isolation mounts. The Threshers had the large bow-mounted sonar and angled, amidships torpedo tubes pioneered by the Tullibee. The new class kept the proven S5W reactor plant from the immediately preceding Skipjack's, but were a radical change in many other ways. In 'Project Nobska,' the Committee on Undersea Warfare of the National Academy of Sciences considered the lessons learned from various prototypes and experimental platforms The Thresher/Permit class were the result of a study commissioned in 1956 by the Chief of Naval Operations (CNO), Admiral Arleigh Burke.

They were used primarily in the 1960s and 1970s, until replaced by the Sturgeon and Los Angeles classes. The Thresher/Permit class of United States Navy nuclear attack submarines were the replacement for the Skipjack class.

The boat is water tight even though it is not a diving sub model.ĭirectly behind the subs sail is access to the subs interior. The boat DOES NOT BOB AROUND LIKE A MODEL as it weighs about 9 POUNDS. This model was weighted and balanced to set in the water similar to the original. Once a diving version submerges, YOU CAN'T SEE THEM WITHOUT SOME WATER CLARITY. Unless you OWN or HAVE ACCESS to a LARGE SWIMMING POOL, MOST LAKES and PONDS are NOT CLEAR. Further, with 2.5GHZ, there is NO antennae showing.ĬLICK ON THE LINK BELOW TO WATCH THE VIDEO! The Radio System is 2.4GHZ to eliminated interference issues with the signal. As most RC diving submarines spend most of their time on the surface anyway, this model fills a gap in sub models for the enthusiast. Many customers have expressed an interest in submarines, but want an AFFORDABLE surface running option WITHOUT the HIGH COST/ISSUES/MAINTENANCE of a diving submarine. – The 60mm WTC for the 1:35 Type XXIII from Bronco.This custom sub is built by our builders as a surface runner submarine. More videos, photos and a building threads can be seen HERE!Ĭurrently in development are: – The 50mm WTC and conversion kit for the Trumpeter HMS Astute. My model submarines – underwater footage: Finished a building log of the VIIB (Krick) – lot’s of photos and 3D STL files. We finally have a photo gallery at ! As a start, I’ve added two albums with lots of photos from two different submarine model makers meetings! New photo and video materials in the Event Gallery – Bratislava 2022 They can be viewed HERE! (New Con Tower and details) The thread can be viewed HERE! Now I feel obligated to share that knowledge to others. I was making my first steps by assembling kits from Engel, Meriman, Graupner, Scaleships, Modelslipway and of course long gone Robbe.

I’m always open to new technologies like 3d scanning, high quality 3d printing and of course to (not so new) CNC. I’m a designer by profession and have quite a decent experience in kits assembly, plastic model to RC conversions, scrath-builds, CAD design and resin casting. I was never afraid to learn from my friends and colleague model makers – drawing conclusions from both their successes and their failures. The information gathered here is mostly based on my own 20 years of model making and operating experience. Getting one of my models ready at Submarine model makers meeting in Neulengbach 2021 is a place where you’ll find both – the necessary knowledge and some of the critical parts for your underwater model.
