U-84 Flak modification
Posted by: Antonio Veiga ()

Hi friends


"The type VII U-Boat" Anatomy of the ship series (Westwood), page 45
"Type VII U-Boat" (Stern), page106
"The U-Boat" (Rössler), page188


At least in these three books the type VIIB U-Boat U-84 is included as a special flak modified U-Boat.
In those all three line-drawings appears an extra separated flak platform, after the conning tower ,with a single 2cm flak mounting.

The only seemed photo evidence I know about such flak modification is that regarding of the U-462 (See this site: [uboat.net]).

Does anyone know any photo evidence about that of the U-84?

Best Regards
