It consisted of various types of small vessels intended for diversionary operations. The \"Molch\" was the first one-man midget submarine constructed for this unit, tasked with attacking Allied shipping in coastal zones. The \"Seehund,\" on the other hand, featured greater range, operated by two sailors, and could carry two torpedoes. Both types played important roles in the Mediterranean and North Sea, although their effectiveness was limited by adverse wartime conditions.\n    \u003c\/p\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eCategory: plastic model kit.\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003ch3\u003eRecommendation:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n    \u003cp\u003e\n      The \u003cstrong\u003eICM S020 K-Verbande Midget Submarines 1\/72\u003c\/strong\u003e model is dedicated to naval history enthusiasts and to intermediate and advanced modelers (difficulty level 3\/5).
