Product Description

Model making is my hobby. I have enjoyed this hobby for many years. The parts in my shop were designed by me for my own projects. I decided to make them available for others to use.

Over the years I have been asked many time which items for painting and assembling my model I recomend. The following is some of the items I
use:

Torpedo Mk 32 Mod 2 was a surface ship-launched, antisubmarine torpedo featuring active acoustic homing. An end product of World War II acoustic homing system development, it was the first active acoustic torpedo. Developed by a combined effort between the General Electric Co., Schenectady, N.Y., and the Ordnance Reserach Laboratory, Pennsylvania State University, for aircraft launching, this torpedo saw limited use in destroyers with the Mk 2 over-the-side launchers for a number of years. A few (10) torpedoes of this type were produced by Leeds and Northrup, Philadelphia, Pa., during the second World War and approximately 3300 in post-war years by the Philco Corp., Philadelphia, and the Naval Ordnance Plant, Forest Park, Ill. Torpedo Mk 32 was withdrawn from service use with the introduction of the Mk 43 torpedo
