USS GATO

US FLEET BOAT CONVERSIONS

These set are designed for the advanced modeler and comprise numerous resin parts. Sometimes the resin parts will warp during shipping, due to events beyond our control such as heat. If this happens to your set, simply place the warped part in hot water (about 100 degrees Fahrenheit) for a few minutes and then gently bend the part back into shape. If this does not work, contact us and we will replace the part, free of charge.

                                                 

The Gato sail represents the original configuration of the submarine fairwaters during the summer of 1941. This set features the completely streamlined  fairwater and shears of the Gato class, the early .50cal MG mount for the enclossed cigarette deck,  and the 3/50"  main deck gun found on early units of the class. The instructions include directions for converting the sail into the mid-1942 configuration with the exposed cigarette deck.
