Dougie Martindale (dougie47) effort on finding all the details on making an accurate VII-B U Boot (U 47) resulted in a series of Feature Articles that will be published here in Armorama.
This is the first one.
We can see the extra mile that Dougie went to achieve all this information, that he so kindly allowed Armorama to publish so that everyone can enjoy the reading, the excellent drawings and some pictures that help explain the modifications made during U 47 carreer.
Please remeber that the drawings were scaled down to fit the pages, the "good ones" are in the gallery linked in the beggining of the Feature Article.
Enjoy your reading!
A big Thank You, Sir goes to Dougie
