Hi guys , fantastic pics.

I saw a Vlackveirling on the winter garden of a type 7. Does anybody know if these were ever fitted to the VIIC/41?
Cheers

Hi

I don't recall them ever being standard on the VIIC/41; however, kaleuns had alot of discretion in regards to anti-aircraft armament. I see no reason it wouldn't/couldn't have replaced the flak cannon. Will keep an eye out for photos.

EDIT: I recently discovered that the boat I am building, Type VIIC/41 U-297, had the Flakveirling. No pics, unfortunately.

There was a special sort of U-Boat called "U-flak boats" U-221 , U-263 and U-271 where some of these sort, but returned to duty as traditional VIIC attack boats.

I think the most U-Boats used the Zwillings Flak. And the most used to dive and don't try to destroy the planes. :hmmm:

On m'écouterait, tu serais payé pour faire ce boulot-là : on sent bien la passion pour le sujet en te lisant, et la volonté de faire quelque chose d'un peu documentaire voire encyclopédique.

:up: I didn't understand a word of french but the uboat pictures were worth it.

Do anyone have a good pic of U-96? Those pics at 4th page aren't enough for me, I wanna see the rest of the sub :(

U-3008 (obviously)

Just pillaged the thread for my SH5 loadscreens (I see them a LOT!).
Thanks guys.

One can never see too much U-Boat photos !! :yeah:

Thanks for sharing guys !! :salute:

Merci pour les encouragements.
Effectivement c'est une passion, que j'aime partager.
J'espère que vous appréciez
Peu à peu je complète le topic.

Une bien jolie mise à jour encore une fois. Mais d'où tires-tu donc ces informations ? Certains détails apparaissant dans ton article n'auraient pu être rapportés que par l'équipage du u-boot lui-même étant donné leur précision... D'où ma curiosité. Quelle est ta base de données, quels bouquins as-tu acheté pour bénéficier de ce niveau de détails ?

Encore bravo, j'attends beaucoup la suite ! :03:
