Comparatively small and ungainly when set against earlier submarine types, the XXIII submarines were nevertheless revolutionary. They were some of the first submarines ever designed to operate primarily underwater, a capability they achieved with a massive 67-cell battery and a snorkel for the diesel engines. Sixty one were completed shortly before the end of the war and U-2336 sank the last Allied ships in the European theater of operations. Kit features conning tower, display stand, and three sets of decals.
