U-9 topi trzy krążowniki w godzinę. Niesamowita historia jednego z najsłynniejszych ataków U-Bootów.

There are many unflattering descriptions that can be attributed to the disastrous events in the North Sea early in the morning of September 22, 1914. It was undoubtedly a huge loss for the British Royal Navy, especially for its sailors, a national and global embarrassment, and a foolish mistake. - - - - - - - - - Do you like my shows?

Both Great Britain and Germany did not yet understand the role that submarines could play. Everything changed when, at the beginning of the conflict, the German submarine U-9, commanded by Captain Otto Weddigen, achieved an extraordinary feat. This unassuming, small vessel, with a crew of just 29, torpedoed and sank three British cruisers in an hour. 1,459 sailors died on board. Never before had the Royal Navy been humiliated in such a short time, proving completely defenseless against the U-boat threat. This day can undoubtedly be called the beginning of an era, a crucial lesson, and a warning signal for Germany and Great Britain about what modern naval warfare had become. Nothing after September 22, 1914, was the same. Listen!
