Ok but by the standard of the day they *were* submarines because ALL submarines were diesel-electric until the USS nautilus

so any submarine prior to like 1960 aren't submarines. That's like saying the Tanks of World war 1 wouldn't be tanks nowadays. like Duh idk

The term "submarine" was coined looooong before modern submarines. If it's a ship that can submerge and than resurface, even if it's only for an hour, it's a submarine.

if anything the US Navy had far more success knocking out Japanese capital ships with submarines than the Germans did with U-boats

If a boat can completely go underwater for longer than you can hold your breath and come back up again no problem, it’s a submarine.

Being inside a submarine is nightmare fuel, people who can be in them are built different

Uboats could do more than 2 knots submerged. The Type VII could do nearly 8 knots submerged.

my Grandpas frigate sank/disabled 3 Uboats. as much as it was necessary, he hated it. he never really talked about it, read it in his journals.

What you're saying is like match-lock arquebuses were not guns really because they don't have 30 round detachable magazines & don't utilise smokeless gunpowder...

What if the U boats back then were Type XXI? Would they have much greater impact on allies? Especially on warships?

I love your vids but the start premise is old and wrong. I have heard it for 20 years.

24 hours with an effective crush depth of 200+ meters is a submarine. Also, U-boat literally means “undersea boat”, so I suppose they never really called it a submarine.
