The first thing that strikes me about this model is the neatness of the assembly. The U-673 Type VII C FLAC in 1:350 scale by Flagman, expertly built by Pavel, stands out for its clean lines and precise fit. The overall sharpness is really something to appreciate—every part seems to be in just the right place without any clutter or excess adhesive.

Now, diving into a bit of history, the real U-673 was part of the Kriegsmarine’s submarine fleet during World War II. These Type VII C U-boats were the workhorses of the German navy, designed for efficiency and stealth. Interestingly, this particular model represents a conversion (FLAC), which means it was modified to have enhanced anti-aircraft capabilities. I guess that’s a testament to how versatile these vessels were intended to be.

What makes this model intriguing and worth a good look is the level of detail achieved at such a small scale. It’s not just about putting parts together—it’s about creating a miniature representation that captures the essence of its historical counterpart. This clean assembly really emphasizes that sometimes less is more, and meticulous attention to detail goes a long way in bringing a model like this to life.
