1/400 01 Maobplast HMS Ursula British WWII Submarine
Plastic Model Kit, Box Condition: Sealed
Commander of the Ursula, Lt. Cdr. Phillips, was on patrol in the estuary of the Elbe when he sighted a Koln class cruiser with 6 escorts. The waters were shallow and diving was dangerous. Regardless, Phillips dove and moved into attack position. At periscope depth, he found himself inside the screen and at point-blank range. He fired a 6 shot spread; his boat was immediately shaken by severe explosions. The Lepzig and one escort sank immediately. The German DDs counterattacked and Phillips went as deep as he could. By skillful maneuvering, he brought the Ursula through safely. He was awarded the DSO for his feats. Kit is still factory sealed.
