Overview

The Type IX C/40 was a variant of the long-range German ocean-going U-boats used by the Kriegsmarine during the Second World War. These formidable submarines were designed for sustained operations far from home, patrolling the vast expanses of the Atlantic Ocean and beyond, and represented a significant threat in the war at sea.
