David Jacques reminded me that we had seen a model of this sub on Norbert's stand at Dortmund in 2012. I emailed Norbert and received this very prompt and helpful reply with drawing and photos of the "concept" sub in trials and one built by a German modeller.

to me
Hello
Yes, I built a small test model of the CB class. Mostly to see how this strange form behaves in the water. I have to say: astonishingly well. But the project has been on the shelf since then.
It is still on my „models to build“ list, but I did not find the time yet. Maybe this summer, as we all have more private time than expected.
Scale 1:15 is my choice. That will be 1m long and 10kg dispalcement. And it fits under my CNC-router.
mit freundlichen Grüßen
