Extremely Rare!
About The Model:
This model of the submarine USN Halibut which was a "test bed"  submarine that saw service in the late 50's and early 60's is the zenith of the ITC Design and Engineering Team, and maybe of all operational plastic model kits.
The model is not only rare but is considered the most complicated operating model ever produced.
The large 24.75 inch long model sails from the battery power to a large electric motor driving twin geared propellers.
It changes headings, dives, surfaces, and a Regulus II missile comes out of the hanger and launches all automatically.
The engineering on this kit is fantastic and was a major break-through in its day (circa 1960).
The high price and difficulties that youngsters had with assembly/operation made for a short production run.
The model worked, and did work well, but was certainly not a toy for inexperienced model builders. 
Note: Not Unassembled & Untested, Sell As Is For Parts Or Repair.
Good Overall Condition For Its Age.
Some Noticable Damage To Rear Rudder, A Piece Broken Off.
Discoloration From Age.
May Be Missing Pieces / Parts.
This model kit has been mostly assembled, but has been ignored over the years, and should be re- worked.
From what I can see the kit is complete, but there may be small pieces or things that i have over looked that might be missing.
You are buying a project here, being sold "for parts" as you may end up having to use your own ingenuity to re create something.
