[PSUBS-MAILIST] Experimental WW2 rubber coated U boat.



Here's a link that talks about the WW2 rubber coated german U boat coated to try and defeat radar.   http://uboat.net/technical/electroboats3.htm
 
And another link about the rubber coated U boat that says the rubber coating helped defeat sonar as well.  http://www.history.navy.mil/branches/org12-5.htm
 
Seems there were only 10 of these made.
 
Kindest Regards,
