Thanks again to everyone for taking time to comment. This is indeed a kit I can recommend, if you want to build a 'Stringbag' build an Airfix (new tool)

Now, confession time. I did plan on building this kit loaded up with the torpedo. It seems that this combination of floats and torpedo wasn't to successful - just too much weight, but there are a couple of photo's showing this layout. So, I built the cradle for the torpedo, and lost it. So, no torpedo for my Swordfish !

Thanks again to all,

Colin M..
