German Submarines Combats In The Second World War

The Kriegsmarine (War Navy) was the navy of Germany from 1935 to 1945. It replaced the German Imperial Navy of the German Empire (1871-1918) and the interwar Reichsmarine (1919–1935) of the Weimar Republic. Germany s main naval weapon was the submarine (u-boot); its main mission was to cut off the flow of supplies and munitions reaching Britain by sea. Submarine attacks on Britain s vital maritime supply routes in the Battle of the Atlantic began immediately with the outbreak of war. The criticisms of this German corsair war are the result of when the history of wars is told only by the winners, as we have seen, historically, the greatest victim in this war, England in the 16th century, made intense use of this same type of naval warfare. In this and other historical simulations of the Second World War I do not decide my hypotheses based on the morals of one ideological faction or another. I do seek to study military strategic, operational and/or tactical variants for the story narrated, analyzed and simulated. In this book I will dedicate myself more to the tactical and technical decision-making levels, simulating a campaign that will be considered victorious if escapes the anti-submarine war and comply with the missions.
