Product Description
Dry Dock Shelter for NATO SSN special forces operations in 1/350 scale. Dry Deck Shelters (DDS) could be deployed on:
Permit SSN class (5 boats)
Sturgeon SSN class (6 boats: Silversides, Archerfish, L. Mendel Rivers, Cavalla, Tunny, William H. Bates)
Los Angeles SSN class (3 boats: Dallas, La Jolla, Buffalo)
Virginia SSN class (10 boats: Virginia, Texas, Hawaii, North Carolina, New Hampshire, New Mexico, Missouri, California, Mississippi, Minnesota)
Seawolf SSN class (1 boat, Jimmy Carter)
Ohio SSGN class (4 boats: Ohio, Michigan, Florida, Georgia, all can support dual DDS)
Ethan Allen converted SSN class (2 boats: John Marshall and Sam Houston)
Benjamin Franklin converted SSN class (2 boats: Kamehameha and James K Polk, both can support dual DDS)
The Sturgeon class USS Cavalla was the first submarine to utilize a DDS and first deployed operationally in 1983.
Only 6 DDS were ever produced!
This DDS model will allow you to to display the DDS open if you wanted. Goes perfect with my SEAL Delivery Vehicle Mk 8 (2 or 4)!
I've updated the model AGAIN! I've redesigned the hinge so that now you can open and close the DDS shelter. This will require a .4 mm plastic rod such as Plastruct sells to act as the hinge. I did carefully open up the holes in the hinge on the DDS side to .5 mm. However, I left the door hinge holes as printed as they were more prone to braking when I was opening them up. Slide the plastic rod through the door hinge and alinge both sides of the hinge while you do it. It's a bit like threading a needle and is a little tricky. I then carefully put a very small blob of thick superglue on the top (thick CA so there's less chance of it wicking and locking everything up), and, after that sets, viola, working hinge!
Here are my general instructions for working with Fine Detail Plastic.
