Title: U-Boot in Focus out now
Post by: dougie47 on 21 Sep , 2008, 12:33

Hi guys,

Another edition of the magazine for the U-boat enthusiast - U-Boot im Focus - is available now. The latest edition, number 4, is up to the usual high standard of the previous three. The magazine always features previously unpublished photos that are of interest to the U-boat modeller. The magazines are in German and English.

Number 4 has very good photos of U 214 and U 307. Number 3 had a particularly excellent photo of Type IIA decks, which really helped with the AMP Type II deck design. Number 3 also had great shots of the Mittelmeerturm on U 596.

The website is at -

Hi Wildspear,

These computers are useful but pretty annoying at times! Another option is to goto -

If you type in U-Boot im Focus in the quick find box they should come up.

Good luck,
