Historical background

The model depicts the Seehund Type XXVIIB/B5 unit, a German midget class submarine. Seehund, meaning “seal”, was one of the most successful German designs of its type – intended for attacks on Allied shipping in the final phase of World War II (1944–1945). They operated mainly out of bases on the North Sea and Baltic coasts, conducting daring raids against Allied convoys in harsh winter conditions and under heavy anti-submarine fire. Seehunds earned a reputation as reliable and robust machines, excellent at masking themselves and exceptionally difficult for the enemy to destroy. In total, approximately 285 units of this type were built.
