The high-speed minesweepers of the "Schütze"
class were commissioned in the German Federal Navy in 1960. The armament
consisted of one 40 mm cannon, plus comprehensive special equipment for mine
seeking and sweeping.
The model:
The Schütze is a new version of a vessel which has been part of our model
boat range for many years, and since its ´decommissioning´ more of our
customers have enquired about this boat than virtually any other model. Since
we did not want simply to resume production of the ´old´ model, we decided to
carry out a complete revision of the entire kit. The geared motors formerly
used have been superseded by powerful direct-drive motors. The high level of
pre-fabrication of the detail parts and fittings make the Schütze a great
choice for any modeler with relatively little experience in building scale
models. When the robbe ´Schütze´ cuts through the water at high speed, it is
almost indistinguishable from the full-size vessel.
