Type IX submarine

The Type IX U-boat a class of large attack U-boats built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine from 1936 to 1945. Derived from the preceding Type IA class, it was designed as a large ocean-going submarine for sustained operations far from the home support facilities. It appeared in various sub-types: the first four subtypes IXA, IXB and IXC and IXC/40 differed only by an ever widened and lengthened outer hull to increase fuel storage and range. The Type IXD had yet again a larger outer hull, but also a lengthened pressure hull to install different engines. The Type IXD came in three versions: the type IXD1 used its larger engine room to install more diesel power for higher top speed. The nearly identical IXD2 and IXD/42 used the extra engine space for economical cruising engines which extended their range to three times the range of the original type IXA design.
