S-100 Military WWII Boat Schnellboot Type 1/35 Italeri Wholesale

Among the various stipulations of the Treaty of Versailles in 1919 was a severe limitation on German naval construction. Small craft were not covered by these stipulations which resulted in the development of motor torpedo boats starting in the late 1920s. The design was based on a civil yacht which was modified to be transport two S-1 torpedoes. The evolution of the design continued until it reached 35 meters in length and 100 metric tons. Even room for secondary armaments was progressively increased. The construction was composite, with aluminum beams and wooden planking. The characteristic ironclad deckhouse appeared with the S-100 model and was a necessary response to increased Allied air superiority and intensified low flying air attacks.
