Nice drawing !!!

But .... in my eyes the screw is a little bit small also i miss the retral hydroplanes !!!

Is it based on a real sub ??? Or pure fictional !!!

No, the design is pure fiction but i took some other submarine drawings for orientation concerning the sizes and proportions etc. No hydroplanes on board, as far as I know there were not too many designs which actually had hydroplanes on board.

May be we have here a misunderstanding ... i meant the "Tiefenruder" ... my translation program said "hydroplanes" . You understand ?????

I think Parador means the diving planes, like these: (Hydroplanes are a correct English language term for them as well.)

also, I'll go out on a limb and say "retral" was supposed to be "rear" or "stern"

"Tiefenruder", now I understand ;-) How embarrassing, I forgot those....

And here is another one. A fictional design of a small coastal submarine, loosely based on the german Typ-II.

Yes, would be a pleasure. But it could take some time, depends on the complexity.

For those who do not know, this is my Dolphin class. Six units under construction. Thanks Daidalos!
You smug-faced crowds with kindling eye
Who cheer when soldier lads march by,
Sneak home and pray you'll never know
The hell where youth and laughter go.
