These vessels took part in massive attacks on the Japanese fleet and supply routes, playing a key role in the blockade of Japan and intelligence operations. Gato class submarines were approximately 95 meters long, had a displacement of over 1,500 tons, and a large crew, which required complex deck structures and mechanisms – all of which are faithfully reproduced by the Eduard BIG5301 detail set.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003ch3\u003eProduct Advantages and Recommendation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Eduard BIG5301 set is intended for advanced modellers (difficulty level 4\/5).
