From looking at your photos is there any reason why the tank is canted up at an angle? {:-{

No probs, :-)

Just be aware that you cannot go any higher than the last large bulkhead or you won't be able to slide the frame into the pressure tube as the end of the tank will catch.. :o :o

Hi Sub,

Apologies for wasting your time matey,  I found a picture a bit further on in the manual, the gap between the motor plate and bulkhead is quite apparent.  Onwards and upwards.

Yours aye

I bought a completed U2540 off my friend. Great build but she's got no markings on her, numbers, signage, symbols, anything. Just wondering if any were applied to the Type XXI? Not just U2540 but any in her class. Was thinking of a flag for when she's running on the surface, what size? Would assume it would be the one below from BECC? Any help appreciated, Dave.  :-))

Have a look at www.uboat.net it is a very comprehensive website on uboats, you should find what you need there or at least authorative contacts that could help.

Subsequent to my last post, I just remembered that there is an excellent book on Type XXI submarines in the 'Anatomy of Ships' series published by Conway. I own that book and one on the Type VII.
