These etched kits were found in an "Estate" stash and may be a decade or so old, so they are a bit tarnished, but otherwise fine.

  • SSNs 688-718 - Original Los Angeles class
  • SSNs 719-750 - Starting with SSN 719 and beyond, the last 31 hulls of the class have 12 vertical launch tubes for the Tomahawk cruise missile.
  • SSNs 751-773 - The final 23 hulls (SSN 751 and later) referred to as "688I" (for improved) are quieter, incorporating an advanced BSY-1 sonar suite combat system and the ability to lay mines from their torpedo tubes. They are configured for under-ice operations in that their forward diving planes have been moved from the sail structure to the bow and the sail has been strengthened for breaking through ice.
