    The 30-inch handcrafted model of the Japanese JS Sōryū Submarine (SS-501 Series) captures the restrained precision and quiet performance of the class commissioned in the 2010s. Inspired by the Sōryū’s air-independent Stirling propulsion, this scale piece reflects a non-nuclear design renowned for extended underwater endurance and refined engineering.

    Each model is executed using the traditional plank-on-frame method and premium materials — Canadian red cedar, Teak, Mahogany,... — and finished to museum standards. From the angular bow and quiet-propulsion profile to the compact, modern sail, the piece is produced over 3 to 6 months with staged photo documentation throughout production.

    • Construction: traditional plank-on-frame craftsmanship using Canadian red cedar, Teak, Mahogany,...
    • Dimensions: 30-inch overall length — a meticulously scaled, hand-built model.
    • Detailing & finish: hull construction, deck detailing and structures, final painting and finishing touches executed to museum quality.
    • Timeline & customization: completion time 3 to 6 months; design adjustments made until final approval.
    • Packaging & provenance: delivered in a custom wooden crate with protective interior; includes staged production photographs and a certificate of authenticity.

    Every commission is supported by our quality assurance and authenticity documentation; returns and warranty information are provided with your order. Contact us to begin your commission or request a consultation.
