Work on the U-9 class submarines - small coastal boats which burned paraffin instead of diesel fuel. Consequently, they suffered from poor range compared to more modern U-Boats. Their fuel source also generated huge clouds of white smoke, making them easily visible. There were four boats in the class (U-9, U-10, U-11, and U-12). U-9, which sank "Aboukir", "Cressy", and "Hogue", was the only boat in the class to survive the war.
