I am building a radio control model of the Type IXc using the recently released 1/72 Revell kit.
The hull moldings have a series openings/ports along the length of the lower section of the hull. Are these the inlets to the ballast tanks and did they have openable covers or doors? If they are, I can cut them out for the flooding openings.
I cannot find any photos that clearly show the lower section of the hull.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.
