Does anyone know that happen to the Balcongerät on U 995? It was on U-995 when it arrived at Laboe (around November 1971) but by March 1972 it was missing? Why was it taken off?

I believe aft torpedo tube on a Type VII-D is the same for the VIIC and the VIIC/41. I also think the VIIB. If you can find any good pictures of a Type VII's aft torpedo tube, it should do the job.

I believe that no good photo's of U-1105 that you can see the tiles, However, you can see real tiling on U-480, it also had Alberich on it. Check out great pictures of it at. There are few more pictures also in this topic

In Anatomoy of the ship ~ Type VII on page 95, Figure E10/3. It say "Late Type Schorchel head".... I thought this type of schnorchel was only used on Type XXI. Does anyone know if it was used on any Type VII's?

Just an update on this question, if a few people are wondering After looking at the u-boat plans a little bit more, I believe that the deck height is the same for both the VIIC and the VIIC/41, in fact all the Type VII’s, all but the two non-build boats VIIC/42C and the VIIC/43 as I believe the pressure hull was 100 mm wider on these versions.

If anyone gets to see this DocO, I would be keen to know and ask a few questions. As I am drawing U-1308. I would be keen to know anything about how the titles looked on the boat, size, layout etc...

I have just finish completely redrawing the stern part of the hull of my drawing. I have used genuine U-boat measurement base on very precise U-boat plans. That I was very kindly given to me . All the frames, ribbings, ‘frame plate holes’, hydrophone, rudder etc…...almost everything which it part of the hull has exact, wide, length and position base on the plans measurement. However, there

> P.s. - What does the "NONE-BUILD" Part mean?!? I think that it mean that the VIIC/42 & VIIC/43 were never build. Also you have PM Jonathan Bolz

Does anyone know if the height between the top of the pressure hull and the deck was greater for the VIIC/41 compare to the VIIC? I measurement the distance and I find that the VIIC/41 is approximately 200 mm higher. Is this correct? Was it higher to make more room for piping etc..?

Does anyone know the attachment location on the deck for the Radio Aerial wire to the stern? On U-boat plans they show the wires attaching to just inside the deck edge and all photographs I seen show the wires attaching to the edge of the deck . Which is correct?

Hi Don I think I may have found the missing inlet vent for the Stern Driving Tank that is found between frame numbers -10 and -11 If you look at all three sterm plans you can make it out. I easiest to see on the VIID plans. Does anyone have any pictures of the very end of the stern, so I can check this?
