Also note the aft interior storage area as well wasn't to accommodate a G7e.

Hi LukeFF,

thanks a lot for the link! It's a great document with tons of useful information ranging from turning times to damage repair team composition and construction details

Extremely useful!

Do you have a similar document about the torpedoes? Some time ago I was trying to get some information about the preheating mechanism of the G7e and could not find anything (How it was done, how long it took...?). Would be great to see an original document dealing with the torps.

Anyway, thanks again for the link.

Cheers, LGN1

@BBW: You are right. It says that you cannot store the G7e in the aft storage area because of maintenance issues. What is also interesting is that you could not store six G7a in the bow storage area. Only four G7a possible (plus 2 G7e if desired).

Glad you like it.

I'll see if I have any more info on the torpedoes.

BTW, what page(s) deal with turning times?

Hi LukeFF,

some very informative pages are:

p 14: Speed settings (diesel engines, electric engines on surface and submerged).

p 17: turning circle diameters for different speeds and rudder settings

bottom p 18: time to reverse course (180 degrees course change)

p 24+25: how loud different activities are, e.g., raising/lowering of scopes (lowering is considerably louder than raising), walking in the sub, pumps, talking, different speed settings (both engines with 100 rpm is 'very loud', one engine 50 rpm is silent). Distance from sound receiver 250m.

p 89-117: about fighting flooding

As I said, very informative the whole document. Would be great to have something similar about the torps.

Cheers, LGN1
