No, there were many sub against sub actions in both World Wars. This was the first one in which a submerged sub took out another submerged sub. It is also the only time this has happened, so far...

Saw it. Awesome insight into this extraodinary event. A+

Love the graphics, thought not as good as Silent Hunter 4 and the 1337 History Channel's "Dogfights" series

It would be great if UBI made expansions for SH4 allowing differant nations boats. All the U-boaters would be happy with the German expansion, and i'd certainly buy the British subpack. Maybe they could even add a few Dutch and Japanese ones in.

Always liked the idea of midget subs.

Hang on... surely the Americans did it in U-571.
