and all I can say is, thank god the war in europe ended when it did.

I looked up the info on this proposed boat, that was on the building ways when Germany surendered, granted in pieces, and the drive wasn't complete.

From the research about the walter drive I did, this simulation is pretty much on the money, maybe even inaccurate with the underwater speed, which is a tad bit slow.

If these boats had come out earlier, perhaps during the happy times, this would have single handedly brought the allied shipping to a stop.

This boat is quite something to witness on the surface with exterior view. Have the engines set at flank, get a good view of the boat crawling along on the surface at 14 kts or more, then engage the drive. The effect is astounding.

I like this little what if, boat. Just how close the allies were to losing is terrifying when you see the things the Germans were coming up with.
