Flyhawk had previously released a kit of the First World War Imperial German battle cruiser Lutzow and now is planning on re-releasing that kit with a torpedo boat kit bonus.
SMS G-37 was a Großes Torpedoboot 1913 class torpedo boat, and the 13th ship of her class.
G-37 was assigned to the Sixth Torpedo Boat Flotilla, Twelfth Half-Flotilla, of the High Seas Fleet of the Kaiserliche Marine. When she participated in the Battle of Jutland she was assigned to escort the battle cruiser Lützow. In this action, Lützow was severely damaged such that she was unable to return to German waters. She assisted SMS G-38, SMS G-40 and SMS V-45 in the evacuation of survivors. On 4 November 1917 at 04:55 hours, G-37 struck a mine and sank in the southern North Sea off Walcheren Island, Netherlands.
G-37 is a waterline kit like the Lutzow and this new release (No. FH1301S) should be announced with a date and price soon.
