The Project 705 Alfa class constituted the world's fastest and deepest diving submarines of their time. The submarine featured a high power-to-weight ratio and the first use of titanium for the hull, as well as extensive automation and an advanced drag-reduction configuration.


The Alfa plan includes full size R/C installation drawings depicting a "built in/bulkhead type" pressure hull with screwed down sealing lids and a gas (Propel) ballast tank system. A fiberglass shell type hull is best suited to construct a model from these plans.
