Description This is "Schnellboot In Action", by Squadron/Signal Publications.
Facts Several forces shaped what is generally considered the best Motor Torpedo Boat (MTB) of WWII, the Schnellboot (speedboat). These included developments in the internal combustion engine, the invention of the torpedo, the restrictions of the 1919 Treaty of Versailles, British naval domination, and an American contract for a luxury yacht. Sometimes referred to as the "S-Boat" or by the archaic Royal Navy term "E-Boat" (Enemy Boat), the Schnellboot was a formidable assembly of technology, naval architecture, and highly trained men.
Features Includes information on all aspects of German Schnellboots.
The book is filled with specifications, facts and photos, including a two-page color center section showing the different markings and configurations. This is a very handy guide for the modeler trying for that true scale appearance! Includes One "Schnellboot In Action", Book - 57 Pages - 11" x 8.25"
