U-boats, and submarines in general, had been invented and deployed in the world's navies long before the Second World War.
To the point, SubSim.com will be around so long as there are viable submarine simulations being produced. Accordingly, the more accurate question should be, 'Will submarine simulations be around in 20 years?' |
You are very right, but it's my personal opionion that the U-boat was the first submarine that people got very interested, but i am no WWII historian so I might be wrong, but that is certainly how it seems to me |
It certainly did, but did so in the First World War, not the Second. A large part of why u-boat casulties were so high was the fact that the nations of the world were so concerned about the near starvation of Great Britian that they devoted large quantities of money and time to bolster their navies' ASW capability. Submarines, by contrary, recieved very little upgrade in capabilities between the wars.
