Russian DELTA IV SSBN
K-407 Once commanded by my friend Igor Kurdin. Igor was also on board the ill fated Yankee Class SSBN K-219. That submarine suffered a leak in one of the missiles liquid propellant which resulted in an explosion. The boat later sank after the crew was removed.
This model is from OKB in 1/700 scale. The launch of the SSN-6 SLBM is simulated with Flashing LEDs

USS TRUTTA SS 421
USS TRUTTA as she appeared at the end of WWII and as she appeared as a converted GUPPY Class. The two models are in a single case one atop the other on separate mirror shelves. I based the hull on the old LIONFISH kit. It had the correct shape but that was about all it had.
