You could take a look at the vendor list at the SubCommittee.

I did a search on the word "submarine" on the website of Squadron Mail Order, one of the biggest and most popular online hobby product sources.  Here's what I got:  http://www.squadron.com/SearchResults.asp?ManuList=everything&Key=Submarine&ScaleList=everything&TypeList=everything&offset=0

The sheer number of products is kind of overwhelming - and how some of them made it onto that list is a little mysterious.  They're in alphabetical order by manufacturer.  Take a particularly close look at the kits listed under Trumpeter and Zvezda.  The biggest assortment of modern subs is the line offered by Yankee Modelworks.  These are resin kits - somewhat more challenging and considerably more expensive than styrene ones.

For an authoritative rundown on what's available, check out the kit review section of the Steel Navy website:  www.steelnavy.com.  That site also has links to a number of other distributors and kit manufacturers.

Hope that helps a little.  I suspect some other Forum members will jump in with suggestions regarding specific kits.

Youth, talent, hard work, and enthusiasm are no match for old age and treachery.

Hi,

 

Ive always been fascinated with modern submarines.  Can someone point me to a online store that sells them?  Ebay has few models, and my googling skills arnt tuning up much.

 

Thanks!
