What I should have said was Oberon class model submarines.

I do recall seeing a Royal Australian Navy version somewhere on the WWW. Maybe a google search might get you what you want.

Damn!! I didn't realize you meant models. I had a couple of them lined up for you.
Expensive, but what the hell.....

These guys make 1960's era Oberons as Oz boats. As I understand it there are also Oberon class boats from WWII, I have no idea what they are, So I'm not really sure if the above is really what you are looking for.

Hmmm, yeah. Skinny little suckers compared to the Collins class. There's a
1:1 scale one (the Onlso) at Darling Harbour Maritime Museum... I went through it last year. As they say, not enough room to swing the proverbial dead cat.Mitch

Ah. I very nearly pointed you at HMS Ocelot in Chatham Historic Dockyard,

where you get guided tours thru what is a very cramped vessel! Good job I didn't send you that way, isn't it! ;-)

Are we talking static here or radio controlled?

I am interested in both types of models. However, initially I am looking at static models.
