Some kind of trireme?

Catfish · 06-22-22, 02:10 PM

Not a trireme.
It is said the prototype has been rowed, but not sure.

Something from the far east?

Doesn't mean I know everything. :p

Was it an early attempt at a surface torpedo?

No?

Ok hint it is an.. umm.. 'german' idea. Though Germany as a state did not exist at the time.

No, not a weapon. Not even armed if texts are correct.

So that means some 150 years less to cover. Great

Was it a submersible?

Yes, though the thing as pictured in the sketch was not built, only a smaller prototype for test purposes. This smaller one is said to have been able to submerge indeed (AND surface).

Aktungbby · 06-23-22, 02:36 AM

prior to the Drebble?

Catfish · 06-23-22, 03:14 AM

^ later

Exocet25fr · 06-23-22, 05:19 AM

Swordfish Lure with hook ?

Catfish · 06-23-22, 05:47 AM

^ that would have been a perfect idea, able to submerge and surface but via a line, while all thinking it is a submarine ..

But it was indeed some meters long and intended to be some kind of submarine.

The Steinhuder Hecht ('Steinhude Pike') from 1772. said to be the first submarine built in Germany?
