At very slow speed ( schleichfahrt, silent running) the motors are very quiet, and additional measures were taken to reduce noise (e.g. ![]() When they are submerged, only the electric motors can operate. Why, do they sometimes tell everyone to keep silent in the sub but run engines at full power trying to escape ? is this an incoherence ? u/chrisbrady2018 did a good job answering your questions. However, when certain operations occur, there might be a slight pressure increase/decrease temporarily until pressure normalizes. No, the inside of the sub is maintained at normal air pressure. It’s the dramatic stress of fear/worry that the boat to (1) start leaking, or (2) actually be under enough pressure to implodeĥ. But also, red light doesn’t mess up night vision, which is needed when the periscope operator is looking through the periscope into the dark night.Ĥ. Red light shows that they are in “battle stations”. But also the Diesel engines were tuned and mounted with as much soundproofing as they could be.ģ. And can’t be at periscope depth while destroyers were above you.Ģ. Therefore, couldn’t accurately launch a torpedo without being at periscope depth. Those style submarines needed to have the ability to look through the periscope to mark when to launch the torpedo. Obviously, if someone has an answer that is more correct, hope that they can provide feedback:ġ. Thanks for making me discover this movie, and thanks in advance if you have any answer ! more generally, do you feel the pressure in a submerged sub ?.when they go deeper than the normal limit, they look like they're suffering (their faces and attitude) : are they suffering from the pressure ? or are they just afraid of the implosion ?.why do they use the red light for, and why do they wear glasses ? I know in modern submarines, red light is used to have a day/night cycle, but it doesn't seem to be the case here.why, do they sometimes tell everyone to keep silent in the sub but run engines at full power trying to escape ? is this an incoherence ?.why don't they shoot destroyers at all ? they let them pass above them (and get hit by mines) but never try to send a torpedo, although they seem pretty close and could hit them I guess.It's not only a great submarine or war movie, it's an absolute great movie, and I'm surprised it's not more well known. ![]() Hey, after seeing a few posts saying it's the best submarine movie, I just finished watching Das Boot and I have to say I wasn't ready for this masterpiece.
