"The master patterns for all but one of our 1/144 scale sub weapons for the
Trumpeter GATO are in hand and about to go off for casting. Only the Mk.3 single Bofors is still to come, and that's not far behind. All will include their own dedicated photoetch. The list includes:

PE 14402, 3"/50 Deck Gun;
PE 14403, 4"/50 Deck Gun;
PE 14404, 5"/25 Deck Gun;
PE 14405, USN Mk.3 Single 40mm Bofors;
PE 14406, Single 20mm Oerlikon;
PE 14407, .50 Caliber Watercooled Machine Gun;
PE 14408, .50 Caliber Mk.2 Air Cooled Machine Gun;
PE 14409, USN Mk.14 Torpedo.

Of course, the same lot of weapons will be available for the forthcoming Revell 1/72 Gato-class boat. You can place pre-orders now, with no charge made until we actually ship."

Take a look at the images as well, mates, these will be a fantastic upgrade addition to your build!
