Mikro Mir MM350-038 USS Growler (SSG-577) 1:350 | Scale Model kit

USS Growler (SSG-577) in 1/350 scale is a plastic model kit by Mikro Mir representing a United States Navy guided external stores submarine developed during the Cold War. The vessel belonged to the Grayback-class submarines adapted to carry early cruise external stores.

USS Growler was commissioned in 1958 and became part of the early U.S. Navy display subject submarine force. The submarine was equipped with Regulus cruise external stores stored in large deck-mounted hangars positioned forward of the sail, a configuration typical for early guided external stores submarines before the introduction of external-store display subjects systems.

During its service, USS Growler conducted patrol missions as part of the United States' early sea-based strategic deterrent capability. The submarine operated primarily in the Pacific during the late 1950s and early 1960s before external stores technology evolved toward submerged-launch external-store display subjects systems.

For modelers: Submarine kits in 1/350 scale benefit from careful alignment of the hull halves and precise positioning of the distinctive external stores hangar structures to maintain the recognizable silhouette of the Growler-class design.
