1/144 'Peral' Spanish Submarine 1888- Mikro-Mir

'Peral' The worlds first electric powered submarine. Built by the Spanish engineer and sailor Isaac Peral for the Spanish Navy. Launched 8 September 1888

Peral was the first electric battery-powered submarine, built by the Spanish engineer and sailor Isaac Peral for the Spanish Navy.[1] The first fully capable military submarine,[2] she was launched 8 September 1888. She had one torpedo tube (and two torpedoes) and an air regeneration system. Her hull shape, propeller, and cruciform external controls anticipated later designs.[citation needed] Her underwater speed was 3 kn (5.6 km/h; 3.5 mph). With fully charged batteries, she was the fastest submarine yet built, with underwater performance levels (except for range) that matched those of First World War U-boats for a very short period, before her batteries began to drain. For example, the SM U-9, a pre-war German U-boat built in 1908, had an underwater speed of 8.1kn, and an underwater range of 150 km (81 nmi) at 5.8kn, before having to resurface to recharge her batteries.[citation needed] In June 1890, Peral's submarine launched a torpedo while submerged. It was also the first submarine to incorporate a fully reliable underwater navigation system. However, conservatives in the Spanish naval hierarchy terminated the project despite two years of successful tests. Her operational abilities have led some to call her the first U-boat.[3]

Peral was withdrawn from service in 1890 and is now preserved at the Cartagena Naval Museum.

1/144 1/144 New WWII Era fighters and Projects - Kampfflieger 
The Kampffliger brand continues to add new aircraft to its range almost daily it seems. Subjects are covering period of both World Wars and the interim period. he we have mix of production items, protoypes and design concepts. While I am clearly focusing on 1/144 those who dabble in other gaming scales may also find some interest in KFs other scale ranges.

An interesting development of the I-5/I-15, although not seen as particularly successful in soviet eyes there were sold in significant numbers overseas to Chinese Central Government, Spanish Republicans and laterly on the Eastern Front by heavily outmatch VVS forces.

Most have heard of the Bolton Paul Defiant, not many have heard of this unusual Bristol Turret fighter! This is the Bristol companies response to a different Air Ministry specification 11/37 for a Twin-engine two-seat day & night fighter/ground support. It did not enter production.

The Miles M.20 was a Second World War fighter developed by Miles Aircraft in 1940. Designed as a simple and quick-to-build 'emergency fighter' alternative to the Royal Air Force's Spitfires and Hurricanes should their production get disrupted by bombing. In the event, due to dispersal of manufacturing, the Luftwaffe's bombing of the Spitfire and Hurricane factories did not seriously affect production, and so the M.20 proved unnecessary and was cancelled.

I think that Kampfflieger is going to a dangerous place, he will surely have to produce a version of the iconic and under represented Martin Baker M.B.5 'possibly the greatest piston engined fighter developed during WWII' :-)

* For anyone interested in more details on these and other British project I can highly recommend the following book: British Secret Projects - Fighters and Bombers 1935 - 1950, By Tony Butler.
