Hello,

I'm looking for plans or drawings of the U-441 ( mainly the whole conning tower & flak gun decks ) that was refitted into one of the flak U-boats. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Sam

You probably have seen this but if not it might help a little.

Mirage makes a 1/400 kit of this. it is kit #MG40412 Squadron has it for $6.47. I have built several of these kits and they are extremely easy to build. For what you pay for a great value. I found them to be a pleasant surprize as they were detailed much better than I expected.
