Greetings shipmates.

SInce I decided to focus on 1/350 kits of the ships and subs from Kido Butai (awaiting the Akagi eagerly) I've tried to list all the ships'n'subs involved, with various info. This mainly to compile a list of possible kits or convertible kits to build the Kido Butai in 1/350th scale.

I've compiled what I have so far into the following Excel spreadsheet.
http://www.krokohunter.dk/stuff/KidoButai.xls

Still a lot of items with no possible kit .. and another funny thing. When I list the data from various sources, I end up with 3 subs to many ... can anybody help me out here?

My mainreferences sofar has been wikipedia, and Lars' list at MWS.

I wanted to make the file writable, so you guys could edit it, to benefit all .. but my webserver doesn't allow it ... .. but if you have any additions, just post them in the thread, and I'll update the spreadsheet.

I hope you guys can help me out.

Thanks in advance.
Niels

That's quite a project you have. I wish you good luck on getting your info. Just remember that wikipedia is user based so don't take everything on there as gospel.
