Deck-gun mount in U-boat construction
Posted by: Innes McCartney ()

Hi All

With the order of November 1942 removing most deck-guns from U-boats, can anyone tell me when this is represented in new construction?

In other words, around which date did builders yards abandon gun adding deck-gun mounts to new boats? We know they did - the question is when?

This leads to several scenarios re laying down date, launching date etc. For now though does anyone have evidence of policy changes/directives etc. and when they took effect.. hope this makes sense

thanks in advance
