The picture was taken in 1940, in front of Toulon.
French submarines design was probably more developed than others.

German submarine schools were mainly based in Baltic sea. I do not know if there was such a school in Bergen: perhaps somebody can answer??? :idea:

Aerodynamic????

Either that submarine had some very unusual capabilities or the word hydrodynamic might have been more appropriate!

You are perfectly right Dunserving !
I wanted to say hydrodynamic... Nevertheless, Hautpoul understood me very well !

This month, in the French magazine "Marines et Forces Navales n°140", the publication of my article relating to the French submarine La Favorite, known as UF 2 in the Ubootwaffe. :)
-->http://www.marines-editions.fr/marines- ... 08-140.cfm

The article has been published in french only, but I will write it in english later!
A special thanks to Stril for his help. :wink:

Enjoy!

Perhaps Stril -or somebody else- knows where it is. :milwink:
A small harbor of Baltic sea?

Regards,
