RE: Swordfish
Your observation are completely correct and I am sorry if it is my mistake but mine intention was to demonstrate the movable parts of model and you all know how hard in sketchup is to change all those rotations .
My intention was to display the model ! -
RE: Swordfish
When I was decided for rendering the image of Swordfish in action in the moment when he release his torpedo the pilot must turn left or right and up to avoid antiaircraft guns and then he lose the speed and direction, this is my theory but maybe it is not correct
The primary weapon was the torpedo, but the low speed of the biplane and the need for a long straight approach made it difficult to deliver against well-defended targets. Swordfish torpedo doctrine called for an approach at 5000 feet (1500 meters) followed by a dive to torpedo release altitude of 18 feet (5.5 meters).[1] Maximum range of the early Mark XII torpedo was 1500 yards (1400 meters).[2] The torpedo traveled 200 yards (180 meters) forward from release to water impact, and required another 300 yards (270 meters) to stabilise at preset depth and arm itself.[1] Ideal release distance was 1000 yards (900 meters) from target if the Swordfish survived to that distance

Swordfish
The Fairey Swordfish was a torpedo bomber built by the Fairey Aviation Company and used by the Fleet Air Arm of the Royal Navy during World War II. Affectionately known as the Stringbag by its crews, it was outdated by 1939, but achieved some spectacular successes during the war, notably the destruction of the Regia Marina (the Italian Navy) in the Battle of Taranto and the famous crippling of the Bismarck.It was one of mine first Airfix models and am still wonder and admire for those brave pilots in this old airplanes against modern Bismarck and Italian Navy!
Thans to Max Grueter for pilot models.
This model is in honour and for all those brave man!

Sdkfz Half truck
After a long time till I was working on medieval project for a book and Tv I am back.
Last year I have made flak 88 and after that logical is an towing truck and I have decided for Sdkfz Half truck but for now I can not assemble Flak and truck together because there is low memory in computer but one day maybe.
It is one WW2 German 18 Ton Heavy Half-Track which was a mighty towing vehicle equipped with two rows of seats and a flatbed in back for the storage of equipment such as a draw-bar and spare wire rope.Its powerplant was a Maybach HL 108 12-cylinder engine, which put out 270hp.
