Mikro Mir MM350-020 British submarine HMS Meteorite Scale 1:350 Plastic Model Submarine Kit

HMS Meteorite in 1/350 scale is a plastic model kit by Mikro Mir representing a British experimental submarine developed in the early post-war period. The vessel was used by the Royal Navy to investigate advanced underwater propulsion concepts derived from late WWII-era German submarine research.

Following the end of World War II, the United Kingdom examined several experimental submarine technologies developed in Germany. HMS Meteorite was based on the German Type XXVI Walther propulsion concept, which explored the use of high-test peroxide fuel to achieve greater underwater speed compared to conventional submarines.

HMS Meteorite - British Experimental Submarine

Commissioned in 1946, HMS Meteorite served primarily as a research and evaluation platform. Trials with this submarine provided the Royal Navy with valuable experience in hydrodynamics and propulsion concepts that influenced later submarine development during the early Cold War period.

For modelers: Submarine models in 1/350 scale benefit from careful alignment of the hull halves and attention to the clean lines of the hull profile to preserve the streamlined appearance of experimental submarine designs.
