		During the Pacific War, it was U.S. submarine fleets that gave heavy damages to Japan, which relied on ocean-borne supplies for natural resources.

	Splinter Fleet - The Wooden Subchasers of World War II
		Subchasers (also called “submarine chasers”) were built and launched in great haste at the outset of World War II because German U boats were roaming the Atlantic at will, unopposed, sinking merchant vessels with complete abandon with no regard for neutrality.
		When surfaced, a German submarine could go faster, and its 4" guns had much longer range than the 3" 50 or 40mm guns on the subchaser, so all the U boat had to do was get out of range and sink the subchaser with its cannon on its own terms.
		When not engaged in escorting convoys or patrolling harbors the subchasers were used in a variety of ways in all theaters of the war.

		The plans I have are for USS SC 448 Class 110-Foot Submarine Chaser(circa December 1948); I have not been able to find information on this exact boat.
		After looking through photographs, I determined that SC 448 was most likely part of those built around 1918 and used up to 1941, when the class was replaced with better boats.

		They were given "number" names; Submarine Chaser No.1, No.2, and so on.
		Patrol vessels received letter type symbols beginning with P, and submarine chasers were designated PC.
		They retained their letter-number names, abbreviated "S.C.," but now also had hull numbers beginning with "PC-." Thus, for instance, USS S.C. Relatively few 110- footers remained by this time, many having been disposed of after the war's end, but they were given the same PC- series numbers that they had borne as names.

	Boeing: History -- Products - Boeing Hydrofoils
		Because water and air present similar challenges in control, stability, electronics, hydraulics and propulsion, Boeing began adapting many systems used in jet airplanes for hydrofoils.
		The first were launched in 1962: Little Squirt, a 20-foot boat propelled by a waterjet; and High Point, a 110-foot submarine chaser that used propellers.
		A 71-foot, 57-ton patrol gunboat, the Tucumcari, launched in 1967, was the first large hydrofoil to use waterjets instead of propellers.
