Was the Alberich coating the same foamed-plastic thing that came to use on the russian spy-submarine that is now a museum in Hamburg, Germany???

This coating was very effective indeed, from its commission in 1973 till 2002 that submarine never was detected.

Thanks for the replies. Need a snorkle most badly now (April 1944), but after that I'm saving for an anti sub coating, let's see If I will see that coming.

Cheers,
AndyW
