The boat's service began on 19 July 1941 with training as part of the 5th U-boat Flotilla. She was transferred to the 3rd Flotilla on 1 November 1941 for active service, followed by a transfer to 29th Flotilla on 1 January 1942 in the Mediterranean. In 10 patrols she sank 8 merchant ships, for a total of 8,090 GRT, plus 1 warship damaged and another merchant ship written off as a total loss. Fate edit U-375 has been missing since 25 July 1943 in the Mediterranean Sea south of Sicily. All hands were lost.[1] Previously recorded fate edit U-375 was thought to have been sunk after being depth charged by USN submarine chaser PC-624 on 30 July 1943 at position 36°40′N 12°28′E in the Mediterranean NW of Malta. All hands were lost. This attack was actually against Italian submarine Velella, inflicting no damage. Good Luck Wolfpack. The Fate of U-375 lays in your hands.

@@MichaelEdwards85399 yes I am I love the U-boat and Silent Hunter series.

I know you may not believe this Wolfpack but this is the best episode you've ever made. Your opening narration and editing is better than anything on television i've watched in the past 10 years. You may not notice this, but you're hitting your stride right now.

TBH The early model U boat radars in SH3 were never worth using in my experience, the watch would usually SEE targets before that thing picked them up if the weather was anything but fog, even if they were in arc. But it was VERY effective at alerting enemy warships to your location though... Oh and Metox will not keep you safe for long, Ironically it was rolled out just as the Allies were starting to switch to Centimetric radar, which Metox can't detect. Any ship rocking a brand new radar isn't going to set it off, only the ones still using older equipment will.

the Germans suspected that the allies had a metox detector aswell in December 1942 due to to much faith in enigma.

R.I.P. U-75. You were an excellent boat and we will miss you. Hopefully, U-375 will prove to be just as, if not more devastating to the Allied war effort.

Just got done binging the Mediterranean campaign and this is a welcome suprise. Love the Type VIIC variant and can't wait to see what's in store!

Your intro narratives are fantastic. Good stuff.

I love these Silent Hunter III campaign vids you do.

Hello WP, Very well done! Single shot straight in! Slipped the counter attack with one decoy. Very efficient attack! Love this content and keep it coming!🍻

Great video, thank you very much Wolfpack.

With the sea that calm I thought you were going to be in for a rough tide. Good thing for the decoy/thermal layer!

Thanks Wolfpack345 for another exciting episode!

Finally. The iconic VIIC! Aside from revamped machinery, different conning tower and integrated S-Gerät (active sonar), there isn't any real difference from B variant. With 100% hull integrity, she can go down to 230m, safely.

Hi wolfpack! I got your channel recommended to me a few weeks ago and I have binge watched all your silent hunter series in that time. A huge fan of your work! I was binging your u-boat series from your uboat playlist, but they are not in chronological order either in the playlist, nor in the title so that makes it a bit difficult for any potential viewers to binge that series too. You could maybe put them in a series too, or as much as possible if dates dont co incide. that would significantly help us. Thanks once again. You're the best sub youtuber out there!

Hey Wolfpack, greetings from Brazil. Excellent video as always. This is by far my favorite series on your channel. A question for you (or for any other channel member who understands the subject better) and I apologize if it's an obvious reason that I simply didn't understand: in scenarios like the one in the video, where there is only one escort ship, it wouldn't be better to simply first attack the escort ship and sink it and then deal with the merchant ship? I understand that the main target for sinking will always be the merchant ship, but considering that the merchant ship won't chase you and drop depth charges, I don't know, in my opinion it would make more sense. Anyway, once again, excellent video and excellent editing. The way you bring immersion to the story is memorable. Congratulations for that and keep up the great work!

Love the content. Worthwhile subscribing too

Good one Wolf, but I would'v sunk the Frigate and then went after the repair ship.

off topic - currently binging on your old playlists. brief view of your playlist show no Silent Hunter V. Was it good, bad, ugly ? too "gamey" - like parts of SH4?

Can you please do a Victor 1-3 cold waters dot mod series, I find its a pretty fun boat.

A dive to 10 meters isn't anything to snuff at. A meter is slightly longer than a yard. So 10 meters is about 31'.8". I think...

Just an inquiry. I feel like in this situation you could've destroyed the warship first, leaving the freighter all by itself and being an easy target and not having to run away. Why was that not done?

@tinkertailor7385

15 күн бұрын

Because of their anti sub sweeps. You fire and they decide to randomly do a sweep out to the side and you miss. A failed attack costs you both ships if they detect it. Early war it's worth it because the freighters don't have deck guns, but later they do, so better off just torpedoing the main prize.

If you ever revisit Cold Waters, would you consider getting into either a Kilo or a Victor III? I don’t think I’ve seen you in either of those, and they both give you headaches or heartburn when playing as a US sub. Trafalger is an okay sub, it’s the Tigerfish torpedoes that make it a letdown in my opinion… since, of course, the British wanted a Monty Python approved main weapon on their boats rather than its American counterpart…
