Having made a Virginia Class it seemed right to make a full hull version as would be seen in a dockyard. This is a full hull out of the water/dry dock version of the Virginia Class submarine of which there are currently 17 in service with the US Navy and more being built. This is a second production run and these dont have a self supporting stand so need a dry dock or a bit of blue tack. Only just noticed this difference. 8700tons 370ft long. Length 90mm nearly 4 inches Ref S103 -

The "Group 2" ships, sometimes referred to as the Superb Class, included HMS Superb of which Tri-ang Minic Ships also produced a model. The models of HMS Swiftsure and HMS Superb were identical distinguished only by the model number and name marked on the underside.
