News just in from Mr. Jerzy Bin of JBModel.eu, a modelling company based in Austria, that they are releasing a new series of resin sets of the Austrian-Hungarian Navy - K.u.K. Kriegsmarine.

They are starting the series with two small torpedo gun boats (classified as Torpedofahrzeuge) as listed below:

K.u.K. Torpedofahrzeuge Planet

K.u.K. Torpedofahrzeuge Magnet

Both these models are in 1/700th scale and we understand will each feature the following:


  • Photo etched fret (0.1 mm thick);
  • Metal masts;
  • Decals;
  • Sets of metal barrels turned by Master;
  • Historical and technical backgrounds;
  • Painting schemes;
  • Plans.

We also understand that the resin castings are being made by RMS Neptun and each kitset will allow the modeshipwright to build a model from any period of the boats service.

At present very little detail is known about these releases but we will of course let you know more details as it becomes available.
