As for box art, I've had several run ins with these inaccuracies, its the same on this box, unless I am wrong, clearly shown are 3 colours, on the display you'll see 4 different colours, I guess this is where research comes into itself.


Three colors, fully agree, but two of them are related with the torpedo. The uboot, according to my documentation was paint with black or with similar to gunship gray.

The paint scheme you've applied was quite common amongst the miniature subs of the time.
