Detailed 1/700 Type VIIB U-boat Model Overview

The Hobby Boss HB-87008 model kit recreates the Type VIIB U-boat in 1/700 scale, capturing the submarine that featured prominently in mid war surface and convoy actions. Known for its robust engineering and role in coordinated Wolf Pack tactics, the Type VIIB is rendered here with attention to hull lines and deck fittings suited to collectors and kit builders.

The Type VIIB represented an evolution over earlier boats, fitted with five forward torpedo tubes and the capacity to carry a mix of torpedoes or mines. Deck armament such as the 88mm gun added surface engagement options. This kit reflects those elements in scaled form, offering a precise but rewarding build that highlights the craft of naval modelling.

Is this kit the 1/700 scale Type VIIB from Hobby Boss?

Yes. The Hobby Boss HB-87008 is produced in 1/700 scale, giving a compact but detailed representation of the Type VIIB U-boat for shelf display or diorama use.

What parts of the submarine are modelled in the kit?

The kit includes components to reproduce the hull shape, conning tower, torpedo tube housings and deck fittings, along with the main deck gun and other small details typical of the Type VIIB.
