US Sub classes 1917-46
I was looking through Jane's Submarine Development and came up with a memorization trick for the US Subs used in Silent Hunter 4+ mods in the order they were developed. (It's an old school trick: make an easy to remember sentence out of names.)
For the pre-war subs I came up with "SAND Can Punish Sailing Ships" Class (year) # Built S-Boat (1917-24) 51 Argonaut (1928) 1 Narwahl, Nautilus (1930) 2 Dolphin (1932) 1 Cachelot, Cuttlefish (1934) 2 Porpoise, Pike (1936) 10 Salmon (1938) 6 Sargo (1939-40) 10 For the wartime subs "Time to Get Good Basic Torpedoes." Tambor (40-41) 6 Garr (40-41) 6 Gato (42-44) 73 Balao (43-47) 127 Tench (44-46) 33 Now, if there was only a trick to learning all of those merchant classes.
