Hobby Boss 83506 1/350 DKM Type IX-A U-Boat Scale Kit  [HB-83506]

Hobby Boss 1/350 DKM Type IX-A U-Boat: Accurate Scale Reproduction

This Hobby Boss 1/350 kit recreates the DKM Navy Type IX-A U-Boat with attention to external detail and correct proportions. It is intended for builders who appreciate period-specific styling and want a compact model with strong display potential.

Role in Service and Model Detail

The Type IX-A was notable for long patrol ranges in Kriegsmarine service, and the model reflects its silhouette and deck fittings. The 1/350 scale preserves key elements so the finished kit reads correctly alongside other period vessels.

Construction and Presentation

Construction rewards steady hands and attention to small parts; the moulded pieces represent hull curves and deck fittings that look best when cleaned, glued and painted with care. The completed model makes an attractive exhibit for a shelf or display case.
