Lorelei
Surcouf (left) unknown (right)
my BAD. I agree it's close but not quite.
In the movie Lorelei, the germans capture the french Surcouf submarine and set it up with a midget sub, a Biber, in the rear hangar that housed the submarine's recon plane.
The inside is also fitted, in the movie, with german gears and gauges.
In RL the USAF sank the Surcouf when a B24 LIberator mistook it for a german sub in Florida in 1942 : the records of the 6th Heavy Bomber Group operating out of Panama show them sinking a large submarine the morning of 19 February.
Other nations tried out the cruiser-submarine type, like Britain's X1 seen here above.
On the other fictionous hand, Lorelei is a good movie, I enjoyed it.
