The reason the S-18 did not have Diesel electric enabled is because IT IS NOT A DIESEL ELECTRIC sub. It has the same charging and propulsion system as the German U-boats, hence one engine provides charging amps, while the other propels the sub.
The S-18, and S-42 classes had VERY long charging times. Source of info, Us submarines 1918-1945. Friedman. |
