There's a series of DSV type subs available through a Japanese company.  They were small scale (obviously) but there were a number of different types available.  I'll have a look around & see if I can find some specifics.

Regards,

There's only a few available, but the series was much larger so perhaps they're out of stock.

HTH,

Mav

You can do a Google Images search for DSV which will get you some drawings of Alvin.

You can also search rescue subs and get lots of pics.
