The German Navy is marching towards the ocean Navy. Battleships and aircraft carriers are started one by one. However, in terms of submarines, Germany is not backward.
Dunnitz is still in charge of the submarines of the German Navy. Under his leadership, the performance of German submarines is also continuously improving, and now the VIIB submarine is under construction.
The submarine force of the German Navy also has a long history. Although submarines were castrated after World War I, new submarines are constantly being built as they gradually get rid of the restrictions of the Versailles treaty.
The latest submarine lengthens the hull, improves the fuel tank, installs a supercharger on the diesel engine, and sets the stern torpedo launch tube inside the pressure shell.
By optimizing the design, the operational performance was improved and the speed and endurance of submarines were improved. A total of 24 submarines were produced before and after the war, which was the absolute main force in the early stage of World War II.
Now, under the sea, it is one of the legendary submarines that keeps sailing silently. The u-47 submarine, which entered service last winter, belongs to the seventh submarine force.
The propeller at the tail is turning slowly, and the whole submarine is sailing in absolute silence.
Submarines in this era are very noisy. The main way to reduce noise is to reduce speed! The propeller at the tail can be seen by the naked eye how slow it rotates. The whole submarine runs at a very low speed of 1 knot.
Without starting the diesel engine, the current depth is below the sea surface of tens of meters. I'm afraid it's only a few meters away from the seabed. This is an absolutely adventurous voyage!
Only the motor makes a slight buzzing sound under the power of the battery.
The submarine is almost dark. When the battery is working, all power must be saved. At the same time, almost everyone abides by the command of silent navigation.
No one spoke.
On the bridge in the middle, Captain prien, the bearded captain, stood at his post with a serious expression. He didn't wear a coat and looked a little out of shape.
Once the submarine sets sail, if it cannot float up, a special smell will gradually condense inside the submarine. The smell of diesel volatilized by the diesel engine and the smell of dozens of sailors will gradually condense together.
Therefore, once they go to sea, no one will care about their military appearance. Submarine soldiers often wear bare arms. After all, they are not easy underwater.
I'd better wear that handsome uniform when I go back to the shore.
In front of prien is the helmsman. At this time, the helmsman is also serious. They know what a terrible place they are about to enter!
Half a month ago, they went to sea, and yesterday, they received an order to sneak into Scarpa Bay tonight and wait for the scheduled attack!
For the German Navy, everyone will never forget Scarpa Bay. Many people have been thinking about how to attack Scarpa Bay since the first day they became a Navy!
Including captain prien,
Prien is just 30 years old and is at his best.
Prien was born in 1908 in osterfield, Saxony, Prussia. Hours later, life was very difficult. His biggest dream was to pursue the footprints of Vasco da Gama, a Portuguese navigator in his mind.
At the age of fifteen in 1923, he began to realize this ambition in life. After years of hard work, he became a captain.
When a bright future beckoned to him, the economic crisis came.
Due to the reduction of the fleet, prien lost his job. In despair, prien followed the rising workers' Party and began his new life.
Prien first went to the Corvette Konigsberg and then was sent to Kiel's submarine training school for training.
During the Spanish Civil War, he conducted two patrols on the u26 submarine under the command of Captain Weiner Hartmann. Last year, he became the current submarine commander.
On the whole submarine, only prien knew that his destination this time was Scarpa bay when he just left the port. Therefore, he has been studying these days.
Scarpa Bay is 24 kilometers long from north to South and 13 kilometers wide from east to west. As an important port of the British Royal Navy, the defense here is not generally strict.
After all, during World War I, German submarine captains expected to drill here to attack.
It is also easy to defend submarines. The port has seven entrances, all of which have anti submarine nets and minefields.
The anti submarine net is very simple. Like ordinary fishing nets, it is arranged underwater. In this way, the passing of warships on the water surface will not be affected. However, submarines sailing underwater will hit one end. Once the propeller is wound on the net, it will not be able to return to the sky. There is no other way but to float out of the water.
At the same time, the rainbow operation in previous years and the sunken ships in Germany will also bring inconvenience to the navigation of submarines.
However, these underwater facilities have existed for many years, so many equipment have been aging.
For example, the wooden grating and anti submarine net at the entrance of Kirk Strait close to the land in the east of Scarpa Bay, that is, the 7th entrance, have been in disrepair for a long time and have lost their due role. These days, the British Navy demolished it and prepared to renovate it!
This is the only chance!
The body of the submarine suddenly tilted and grabbed the handrail around him. Captain prien looked calm. He knew very well that the sea outside was too rough.
The whole Holm Strait is in a turbulent flow, which is almost impossible to reach. Only when the submarine sails at full speed can it go against the current, and once it is sailing at full speed, the huge noise will be exposed to the British.
Now, he can only sail quietly at low speed. Now, a sudden water flow almost stopped his submarine, but he still didn't give up.
Wait for the chance!
A few minutes later, suddenly, a bigger shaking came!
"Attention, get ready, we are about to enter Scarpa bay!" Said Captain prien.
About to enter!
The huge shaking just now is in the opposite direction. This is the opening of the hoksha Strait. This current can just rush the submarine into Scarpa Bay. This is their only chance.
Sure enough, next, the whole hull became lighter and faster under the action of an ocean current!
As a submarine commander, you must skillfully use ocean currents! In this way, even without the engine, the submarine can sail! In history, German submarines entered the Mediterranean and did so.
Now, with the help of this current, they have successfully crossed the 7th entrance and entered Scarpa bay!
