Re: Calling all IJN Minesweeper fans |

No problem Dan, I had some questions and it is better here. I'm building Five Stars W-13 kit, but not sure which ship. I had some questions, but found the answer by myself. The kit is as the minesweeper where after the rebuild with the lower bridge. It cames without degausing cable. I only know pics of prewar ships with the numbers on and no degausing cable. But it is nearly save to say they were refitted. So I'm building the kit as a prewar ship with some numbers attached. A good change from the usual grey ships. Till know now I had no problems and beside the degausing cable the kit includes everything you need to build the ship. In some kits the cutters are missing, but not here.
