Greetings all.
I am seeking details of the hatch arrangement on the upper casing of an Akula II submarine. I have been unable to find any good plans, but the net has at least provided many photos. These details are needed for me to complete a 1/32 scale model I am building, and it would help me detail the outer casing fittings. In particular, the hatches for the berthing lines, fairleads and bollards are important as the model will be radio controlled and used in a large body of salt water. Also hatch details for the masts and other fittings on the fin (US sail) would be appreciated. And why was "Drakon" renamed "Samara"?

I searched a little because, I have been a fan of model RC submarines. I search through some of my model information and found this stuff;
