Subron 50

Subron 50 is a semi-historical re-creation of operations by 6 Gato Class Submarines in the Atlantic from Sept 42 to July 43. Now if I was to be 100% historical accurate in the creation of this mod, it would be “very boring”, as in real life Subron 50 did not see that much action. Therefore I’ve have taken some “historic license” with Subron 50’s operations, first the operations dates for your boat, are from Sept 20th 1942 to November 1st 1943 (extra 3 months more than real life). Second, after missions in support of Operation Torch, you will be assigned to convoy interdiction and anti-blockaded runner operations in the Bay of Biscay. In real life the boats did conduct anti-blockaded runner ops in the Bay of Biscay along the north coast of Spain and the extreme southwest coast of France, however they only saw very limited action. During the “Bay of Biscay” phase you will be required to conduct some “very challenging” shallow water operations against German / Vichy French convoy operations and historical anti-blockade runner ops along the north coast of Spain. As for the Blockade Runners, they normally would not fly the German flag, but in Subron 50 they will for easy ID. Third, later in your career, the boat will be assigned anti-shipping operations along the Norwegian coast. In real life they were deployed between Iceland and Norway to prevent German Naval units from exiting into the North Atlantic, but again as with their earlier Bay of Biscay ops, saw no action and were withdrawn to the US in July 43. As with the Subron 50 ops in the Bay of Biscay, you will be required to conduct “shallow water” operations against German convoys.
