      I visited the Wilhelm Bauer Type 21 Submarine Museum sub in Bremerhaven. That would have been a scary Fn sub for the allies early on. She carried 28 torpedoes in the fore, with 6 tubes, and she was actually faster submerged than sailing on the surface. She was also capable of remaining under water for the duration of the cruise due to advance snorkel tech, and could run her diesel engines while moving underwater.
      This particular submarine never saw combat. The to little to late condition caused that. I would love to visit the Mark 7 Museum ships though.

    Well, that was certainly something. I've been to see the U-505 up in Chicago and the size difference between this Type 7 and the larger Type 9 is pretty plain to see from this. Almost hard to imagine a crew living in one of these things, as the larger Type 9 was already pretty cramped internally, and the 7 had less space to work with. Regardless of politics, you still have to respect the people that volunteered to live and fight on these things.

    Just two little notes.
    - While she surrendered in Trondheim, Norway (9 May 1945).
    But she was unseaworthy (moored in Trondheim to be fitted with a ''Schnorchel'' 8 May 1945) and thus.....
    She was never transferred to UK, later taken over by Norway in 1948 and startet to serve as HMS Kaura as a K-Class at the end of 1952.
    She ended her Norwegian service in 1965.
    - Norway tried to sell it back to Germany for the cermonial price of 1 Deutsche Mark in, which was refused.
    It was the German Navy League, DMB, who bought her for preservation.
    She became a museum ship in 1971.

      @@Kenny212_2 Why?
      At that point of time, she had no use in the military as an offensiv, defensive or training tool any more.
      It was was just an expense that needed upkeep.
      The only ''use'' left she had, was as an museum piece.
      Though I do agree that she would be looking awesome being moored inside of 'Dora 1'' in Trondheim.
      The only question would then be...
      "who should pay for the upkeep and maintanence?"
      It was the same story for the carrier ship Kitty Hawk (and John F. Kennedy) which were sold for one cent to a ship scrapper in Texas.
      These were the last non-nuclear powered carriers in the US navy, and the last chance to make a US navy carrier museum.
      But it came down to cost.

      Im sure they did feel tremendous frustration and grief. But probably not until much later. In the moment im sure they were all focused on trying to do their jobs. Sailors from everywhere in the world share that tendency in common. Along with a strong desire to rescue shipwreck victims and mutual respect for other sailors and especially for ships. Its said that when a bunch of british & american ships and planes managed to gang up on and corner the Bismark, probably the most legendary and famous battleship in history, even according to this channel, which doesnt focus on German ships much. That the British sailors stood on deck and watched solemnly as she slowly sank and rolled over. And later mentioned that she was a beautiful, miraculous ship. "But she had to go to the bottom."
      And this was the ship that sank the royal navy flagship Hood, their best ship of the war, in 3 minutes flat. Among other things she singlehandedly shifted the entire balance of power on the oceans. Yet the still marveled and respected her. Even though she was an enemy. And they also felt for her crew. There are similar accounts from German sailors at other times. Strange that seamen all seem to have certain things in common like this

    Today, she’s permanently berthed in Laboe Naval Memorial, where she serves as a museum U-boat. VII-class submarines alarmed even Winston Churchill himself, and presented a substantial threat to Allied vessels in the Atlantic Ocean in the early 1940s. This is perhaps one of the world's most numerous classes of boats in terms of units built.
    What military history can the U-995 submarine boast of?

    Unfortunately, I noticed several inaccuracies in the technical information provided.
    1. The Boat is 67,240 m long, not 67,1 which would be an older VIIC Type.
    2. The Boat is 18 to 22 mm thick.
    3. The displacement of the boat is 1070 m3, not 871. 871 tons is the boat without any outer tank included.
    4. The concave Bulkheads were designed to have the very same pressure resistance as the pressure hull itself and could withstand a pressure up to 220 m.
    5. The depth rudders were mainly operated electively. There's no hydraulic depth control. It was done mechanically by hand. Only 2 Boats had tests done with Hydraulic, and this was U-202 and U-203.
    6. The Red Handwheels were not used to "Control" the ballast, but blow the ballast tanks. Nothing was opened gradually. The Big red valve above is used to blow and control the blowing.

    They say the increase of destroyed U-boats wasn't a sudden event but I recall reading a German Captain's memoirs and he said that submarines were disappearing and never heard from again, not even a distress report. One night he was running his battery charge and the boat was lit up by a searchlight from the air and then a close explosion in the water. He managed to submerge the boat in time, but now knew with surprise that the allies were using aircraft further out in the Atlantic than before.

While the museum ist very interesting to visit, the underground vault in honor of the dead is quite humbling. I still remember the silence, aside from the whispering sound of the wind and, depending on the weather, the sea outside.

    I have seen alot of U-Boat documentaries but I like this one for the amount of scenes showing the internals of a U-Boat. 23:53 - "It's arguably one of the most numerous ship types in the world by the number of units built. I believe even the Liberty-class were less numerous." I cannot believe the producers let this statement be a part of their documentary. Every history book I have read about the German U-Boats places the total number of U-Boats built of *_every_* type combined only reached the low 1100s. The Liberty ships, however, easily reached the low 2700s. Even if the US Government lied about the total amount of Liberty ships built, which is always possible, and there were only 1500 Liberty ships built it is still much more than the total number of U-Boats built.
