These new fleet submarines were successful boats that proved to be fast, strong, well armed, and suited to the long-range patrols necessary to fight in the Pacific. They waged war against the Axis powers, amassing a record of devastation and sheer killing power that was unmatched by any other land or sea assault platform. These new fleet submarines enabled the Navy to shift its submarine doctrine from coastal defense to open ocean attacks on enemy warships and convoys critical to enemy logistical support. This doctrine of forward presence and strike warfare by the submarine remains today.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eHighly detailed static plastic model kit molded in grey\u003cbr\u003e1\/700 scale\u003cbr\u003eSkill level 2, ages 14 and up\u003cbr\u003e13 separate pieces\u003cbr\u003eApproximate dimensions: Length: 135.74mm (5.24in), Beam: 12.2mm (.48in), Height:23.6mm (.929in)\u003cbr\u003eStand and name plate with silk screen print\u003cbr\u003eGlue, paint and assembly required\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eIntended for ages 14 and up.","brand":"Wondertrail","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43084747407383,"sku":"OOO","price":19.16,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0586\/8099\/9959\/files\/HBM87013.jpg?v=1757366754","url":"https:\/\/animeimports.net\/products\/hbm87013-uss-gato-ss212-1944-1-700-scale-plastic-model-kit-hobby-boss","provider":"Anime Imports LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
