Name that ship/sub
 
Ok, since there are the treads "Name that bomber" and "Name that fighter" I thought that a thread "Name that ship/sub" was appropriate.

We'll start with this one
Tell me the name and class of this sub

It's U-35. A type IXA http://www.uboat.net/boats/u37.htm
She became a trial boat and was fitted with an experimental tower later used on the XXI.

I lie how they kept the net cutter.
