One of these new weapons systems is the submarines. The navies were originally planned to be used for coastal defense purposes only because of their insufficient capacities. But submarines have been transformed into a serious striking force by increasing their capacities and range thanks to generators operating with steel, battery, and gasoline. In the First World War, the Germans used the submarines for the first time in order to attack the enemy logistic convoys in the high seas instead of the coastal protection mission. In 1917, this new war concept would force the United Kingdom to surrender, which would almost succeed. At this point, the comparative analysis of the German Navy's success with the U-Boats in the first and second world wars will be examined in this study %K Denizalt£¿ %K U-Boat %K Alman Donanmas£¿ %K Kraliyet Donanmas£¿ %K Deniz Ticari Sava£¿£¿ %K Deniz Sava£¿£¿ %U http://dergipark.org.tr/juhis/issue/46267/570649
