JMSDF 'Oyashio'

My Small World Models 1:96 scale 'Oyashio' surfacing this afternoon. This was the first run and a little bit of 'balancing' is still needed. A pitch control unit will also be fitted. This model uses airbrush propellant to vent the ballast tank but experiments are underway using air duster as it's less toxic - to me! As usual with subs the turning circle is rubbish so I guess some work will be needed on that too. I also had my SWM Kilo down (sorry no pics) and that worked perfectly on its first sail - makes a change for me!
