Submarine Specs
I couldn't find the specifications on the submarines in my manual or in the (different) pdf manual on the game DVD. So I assembled a list of specifications. I do not know how accurate these numbers are to the real submarines and I do not know how accurately Silent Hunter 4 models the subs anyway. Additionally, the underwater endurance and the range numbers are particularly suspect. I welcome corrections.
United States S class submarine (1920) 14.5 knots surfaced 11 knots submerged unknown endurance submerged 200 ft test depth 4 forward torpedo tubes 12 torpedos 3420 - 5500 miles endurance United States Porpoise class submarine (1935) 20 knots surfaced 8 knots submerged unknown endurance submerged, very low endurance in game 250 ft test depth 4 forward torpedo tubes 2 aft torpedo tubes 16 torpedos 22,000 miles range Salmon class submarine (1937) 21 knots surfaced 9 knots submerged Unknown endurance 250 ft test depth 4 forward 4 aft 24 torpedos 11,000 miles range Sargo class submarine (1939) 21 knots surfaced 8.75 knots submerged Unknown endurance 250 ft test depth 4 forward 4 aft 24 torpedos 11,000 miles range Tambor class submarine (1940) 20 knots surfaced 9 knots submerged 48 hour endurance submerged 250 ft test depth 6 forward torpedo tubes 4 aft torpedo tubes 24 torpedos 11,000 miles range Gar class submarine (1941) 20 knots surfaced 8.75 knots submerged 48 hour endurance submerged 250 ft test depth 6 forward torpedo tubes 4 aft torpedo tubes 24 torpedos 11,000 miles range Gato class submarine (1941) 20.25 knots surfaced 8.75 knots submerged 48 hour endurance submerged 300 ft test depth 6 forward torpedo tubes 4 aft torpedo tubes 24 torpedos 20,000 miles range Balao class submarine (1943) 20.25 knots surfaced 8.75 knots submerged 48 hour endurance submerged 400 ft test depth, 600 ft emergency 6 forward torpedo tubes 4 aft torpedo tubes 24 torpedos 20,000 miles range |
