German Type UC II submarine

UC II type minelaying submarines were used by the Kaiserliche Marine during the World War I. They displaced 417 tons, carried 7 torpedoes and up to 18 mines.

If judged only by the numbers of enemy vessels destroyed, the UC II is the most successful submarine design in the history: According to modern estimates, they sank more than 1800 enemy vessels. [ http://uboat.net/wwi>]
