The U 212 U-boat has a displacement of 1360 tons, is 53.5 meters long and 11.5 meters high, with a diameter between 5.5 and 6.8 meters, and it's operated by a crew of 24. The outer surface is covered in a special, non-reflective paint, that absorbs ultrasounds coming from the sonars of other submarines, making it as efficient as the F117-A stealth bomber, covered in roughly the same paint. The fact that it uses fuel cells, with no moving parts, greatly reduces the noise output, making it virtually undetectable, compared to other diesel subs. U 32 was the first non-nuclear submarine to stay submerged for two weeks. Launched in 2003, the U 32 is powered by one diesel engine and an electric motor driven by two fuel cells and features a cavitation-free screw, making it harder to detect. U 32 "Edenkoben" is the second Type 212A submarine of the German Navy. It's not a nuclear submarine, it's a hunter one, designed to attack and sink surface vessels and other submarines. The supreme silent hunter in the world is the German U 212 submarine. They are quiet and effective, being able to operate close to the shore without anyone knowing it's there. Operating underwater at pressures beyond the range of unaided human survivability, submarines, first widely used in World War I, are used by all major navies today. It's not the atomic bomb, it's even more powerful, while being almost undetectable and can launch a devastating surprise attack on almost any country in the world.
Among the arsenal of the most advanced military superpowers, one weapon is the most feared.
