The U-boat Project

The U-boat Project refers to initiatives designed to develop and enhance German submarines, known as U-boats, particularly during World War I and World War II. These submarines were crucial for Germany to conduct naval warfare, targeting Allied ships to disrupt supply lines. The project involved advancements in submarine technology, stealth, and tactics, allowing U-boats to operate effectively in the ocean. Despite initial successes, the project faced challenges, including improved Allied anti-submarine measures, which ultimately diminished the effectiveness of U-boats by the war's end.
