Submarine XXI assembled model

The most advanced submarine in the world at the beginning of 1945. The shape of the line designed for underwater travel and three times the battery capacity resulted in a sensational underwater speed of 17 knots. Other innovations were low-noise electric motors for crawling, high-sensitivity tracking devices, and 2-cm anti-aircraft gun turrets.
