German Submarine Type VII C German Submarine Type VII C
The Type VII C was gradually developed from the beginning of the 1930s from the so-called “canoes” – small short-range submarines suitable for use in the North Sea and the Baltic. The aim of the German Naval Command was to obtain a new type of submersible with which the future main combat zones in the eastern, north and mid Atlantic could be reached in order to take action against the English supply lines. Between 1935 and 1937, ten vessels of Type VII A were built with the characteristic saddle tank. The type VII B then received more powerful engines and the vessel was lengthened by 2 m. The Type VII C received an active sonar device and larger conning tower and bridge and between 1938 and 1944 was built in steadily increasing numbers at a total of 16 German shipyards. 664 of this single-hulled vessel were launched. They represent the most numerous submarine type of the Second World War. The steel plates of the pressure hull were 18.5 mm thick. This enabled it to submerge down to a depth of about 100 m. However in an emergency many withstood a maximum depth of 250 m. In addition to tor­pedoes they could also carry torpedo tube mines to enable them to mine the approaches to harbours. On deck forward of the tower there was a 88 cm surface-to-surface cannon on a centre pivot mount that could fire projectiles to a distance of 12.35 km. One of the most effective uses of this weapon was the shelling by U-81 of the British electric power station at Jaffa (near present day Tel Aviv). At the beginning however it was mostly used to force merchant vessels to stop by firing a shot across the bows. In the turret aft of the tower stood a 2 cm anti-aircraft gun. In addition to 4 officers and 5 staff sergeants, there were 9 non-commissioned officers and 20 ratings, who were often accommodated aboard in closely confined space for weeks on end. Type VII C vessels were used in the north and mid Atlantic, off Africa, in the Caribbean and the Mediterranean, off Greenland, the east coasts of North America and Canada and in the North Sea up into Arctic waters east of Murmansk. Their tactics for attacking convoys altered soon after Great Britain entered the war in that during the day the submarines tracked them and reported their posi­tion and accompanying warships and then, submerged under cover of night, attacked the ships at close range with torpedoes. Thus during the “lucky peri­od” in 1940 and 1941 it was possible for the German U-boats to achieve con­siderable successes in sinking enemy warships and merchant tonnage. From March 1941 however this scene changed suddenly and very drastically. The enemy methods of locating and air reconnaissance were so much improved that the vessels suddenly “disappeared”. Thus out of about 39,000 submarine crewmen over 33,000 lost their lives at sea. The rise and fall of the German U­boat is impressively reflected in this model.
