RC Sub, a maker of outstanding PE details for the 1/72 Revell U-Boat kits, is looking to add new product to his line. This would be a conversion kit for the Revell Type IXC U-505 kit (No 05114) to make it into a Type IXC40 boat.

Isn't Revell bringing out a Type IXC/40?

Hi Bill.
Revell Kit: 5133 represents the IXC/40 with the cut back hull as
seen on U 190.
This conversion is to specifically convert their previous release
and do the U 534 which did not have the cut back hull but a full
hull.
Cheers,
Joe
