Hi Tech GE cab on Rivarossi U25C
Author: fbe

This is a nice fit and is fine detail on an easy to build kit.

When finished it sits well on the Rivarossi model everywhere except below the front Windows where there is a large gap. So what is the deal here? Is the solution just to add a filler plate to fill the gap and sand it smooth?


Thanks.

Isn't the high tech cab for the later (post U25 early 28) U-boats with the sloped pug nose? The U25C's and early U28C's had straight top pug noses that probably did not come up as high at the cab. Also the big one-piece windshields appear to be deeper than on the later units with sloped noses and split windshields. Probably your best bet would be to fill the gap with styrene. Got photos?
