		However, the Type VII C submarine like no other typifies the rise and fall of the German submarine.
		The VII C represents about 70% of the submarines delivered to the navy and was the main instrument used by the German submarine command up to the end of the war, in particular in attacks on convoys on the Allied transatlantic supply routes up to March 1944.
		The Type VII C is unquestionably one of the best known submarines used in World War II.

		The I-19 class submarines were large, long range subs designed and built to be able to cross the Pacific and attack shipping along the west coast of the United States or to strike at will at US Naval Units crossing the Pacific to do battle with the Imperial Japanese Navy.
		This larger GATO class submarine is large enough to make it very suitable for submerged operations, or if you are not quite ready to take the plunge, she also makes a beautiful surface runner as well.
		This ALFA class submarine is perfect for the modeler who would like a larger scale model of a modem nuclear submarine, but does not have the room that is demanded by so many of these designs.

	The Boats - WW II U.S. Submarine War in the Pacific (1941-1945)
		In the period following the end of the World War II, it was determined that the valiant effort on the part of the US submarine fleet was, in a large part, directly responsible for the severe shortage of raw materials and supplies which were so desperately needed by Japan.
		With the required range, speed and armament, the Tambors were the last of the US submarines to be commissioned before the start of the war with Japan.
		Modeled after the German U-Boats, the US produced the first of a series of subs originally thought to meet the fleet boat criteria.

		L Class submarines were used to defend Allied shipping from German U-boats during World War I. World War II During the 1930s the Electric Boat Co. built the Salmon Class submarine that proved to be effective for long range patrols.
		The U.S. Navy had yet to be convinced of the importance of the submarine, so following designs were based on surface operation and harbor defense.
		Since most of the U.S. Battle Fleet had been destroyed at Pearl Harbor, carriers and submarines had become the primary offensive weapon against Japan in the early part of the war.

		The Type XXI was the answer to the increasing danger to German U-Boats by allied anti submarine forces in the second half of the war.
		The 8 U-boats of Type X were the largest submarines used by the Kriegsmarine in World War II.
		Build as a replacement of the old Type II, those boats were faster submerged than on the surface, caused by their powerful electric engine and hydrodynamic shaped hull.

		In Decem ber 1948, she entered the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard for a GUPPY II conversion; and, on 25 July 1949, she left the yard for Norfolk where, as a modernized high-speed attack submarine, she joined SubRon 6.
		On returning to New London, Sirago commenced duties which included training serv ices for the Submarine School and for the fleet's destroyer force; experimental exercises to evaluate new techniques and equipment; type training; and fleet exercises which took her from Davis Strait into the Caribbean.
		After shakedown, she joined Submarine Squadron (SubRon) 8 at New London; and, in January 1946, she proceeded to Provincetown, Mass., where she participated in the destruction of two German submarines.

		The Type II German U-boat was a fairly small coastal submarine known to her Skippers and crew as the 'Dugout Canoe' and not always with affection.
		Once the Type VII and IX boats were being delivered in greater numbers, the Type II boats were relegated to the training command except for six that were assigned to the 33rd U-Bootflottille.
		The "B" mod of the Type II was mainly in the increased bunker capacity and corresponding radius of action.

		The German Type XXI submarine was capable of 18 kts submerged, could dive to nearly 1,000 feet and included a schnorchel (snorkel) mast to allow for diesel operations and battery charging while submerged.
		Type XXI U-boats were the first submarines designed to operate entirely submerged, rather than as surface ships that could submerge as a temporary, awkward mode of operation.
		During the five years following the end of World War II, Soviet exploitation of the Type XXI lagged significantly behind American fears.

		The Type VIIC was the workhorse of the German U-boat force, with 568 commissioned from 1940 to 1945.
		The type VIID boats, designed in 1939 and 1940, were a longer version of the VIIC with three banks of five vertical tubes just aft of the conning tower, rather like a modern ballistic missile submarine, except that these tubes ejected mines rather than missiles.
		The Type VIIC was an effective fighting machine and was seen almost everywhere U-boats operated, although their range was not as great as that of the larger IX types.

	Carpenter
		Designed to counter Soviet high-speed snorkel-equipped diesel submarines similar to the German World War II-era Type-XXIs, Carpenter was equipped with a trainable Hedgehog, two Weapon Alfa anti-submarine rocket launchers, anti-submarine torpedoes, and numerous depth charges, in addition to torpedo countermeasure equipment, towed decoys and an improved sonar system.
		Starting in January 1963 the destroyer conducted numerous training exercises off Hawaii, including submarine target services and a training mission with Canadian frigates Beacon Hill (FFE-303) and Jonquiere (FFE-318).
		During those evolutions, Carpenter conducted ASW patrols to keep Soviet submarines from observing the tests in between her duties as plane guard for Rendova (CVE-114), whose planes flew patrol and reconnaissance missions in the region.
