A deck gun for the Revell 1/72 U-boats (most commonly associated with the Type VIIs) in resin and brass.
From uboat.net:
The naval 88mm gun was not the same as the famous 88mm of the German Army. The ammunition was a single unit round (projectile and cartridge) and weighed about 30 pounds (13.7kg). Mounted on a platform just ahead of the conning tower, it had identical controls on both sides, so the crew of two could operate it from either side

Available now from the Eduard site for approximately $13.00 (US).

Looks really good Micheal, I am wondering if there will be more mounts on the way, with type 9 in mind. Si

Thanks for the info Michael. What I would really like to see is the 10.5cm SK C/32 for the type IX. The mount is actually the same but the gun is bigger. Cheers, Joe

Joe, I wouldn't be a bit surprised if they have it in the pipeline. I'll let you know if the announce one.
