Built with a length of circa 35 m and beam of about 5.28 m, the class achieved speeds around 39.5 knots. These boats were deployed for torpedo attacks, reconnaissance and high-speed patrols during World War II.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eThis model brings that historical significance into the modelling world. By recreating the S-38 in 1:72 scale, modelers can explore detailed deck fittings, weapon layouts and the classic “E-boat” silhouette. It offers both educational value and a display-worthy build for enthusiasts of naval warfare.\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHow to use it\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n \u003cp\u003eBuild using paint and glue.
