The USS Growler is the second and final Greyback class submarine, whose main goal was to test the Regulus I and II cruise missiles. ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/GfZVsVg.png) Additionally, here are some pictures of the exterior and interior of the USS Growler that I took on my visit to NYC. exterior of Growler ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/sLhGE8Um.jpg) interior of mast with ladder leading to top ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/dpUU98rm.jpg) I don't remember exactly what all these rooms were mostly engine/control/sonar rooms ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/3BjK0ogm.jpg) ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/gr1qyEvm.jpg) ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/DdAuIAGm.jpg) ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/6TmaYtIm.jpg) ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/6dQelSsm.jpg) aft torpedo room ![[ img ]](https://i.imgur.com/G2JNtyzm.jpg)

I have a feeling, that the sub is a little thin, just a feeling! ![[ img ]](http://www.wa3key.com/subdiag.jpg) ![[ img ]](http://www.flankers-site.co.uk/model_submarines_files/USS%20Growler_25.jpg) ![[ img ]](http://www.flankers-site.co.uk/model_submarines_files/USS%20Growler_30.jpg) ![[ img ]](http://www.flankers-site.co.uk/model_submarines_files/USS%20Growler_28.jpg) http://www.wa3key.com/growler.html |

I actually used that first image as my reference photo, I scaled it down to match the SB size, might have messed it up just a bit lol |

Nice work. Nice to see someone drawing the postwar USN subs. I would not base any drawings on the illustrations DP shows above - they are notoriously inaccurate. I would stick to the drawings in Friedman's US Subs, or from booklets of general plans. |
