Unrestricted submarine warfare

you in your enquiry into the impact of German submarine warfare on Britain during the first and second world wars explain your answer using these sources and your own knowledge [16 marks]. Unrestricted submarine warfare was announced by Germany on January 9th 1917. Unrestricted submarine warfare is a type of naval warfare in which submarines sink vessels such as freighters and tankers without warning. Following the use of unrestricted submarine warfare by Germany in the First World War, countries

By the fall of 1917, the Allies would be losing more ships than could be built to the submarines. Now, though, the Allies had America on their side and the American navy would certainly make a difference, though it might not be enough. Then, American Rear Admiral William S. Sims aided in designing a convoy system to defend all manner of ships

Claim: What claim can you make to answer the document based question? The United States entrance into World War 1 was not the correct decision Argumentative Point 1: They only entered the war for money and it only benefitted the wealthy business owners Evidence from Document #2 Argumentative Point 2: The people who suffered had no say in what was happening Evidence from Document #3 Argumentative Point 3: They lied to the public and if they did not lie then they would have chosen to not enter Evidence

A: Identification and Evaluation of Sources To what extent was unrestricted submarine warfare by Germany the principle reason for United States involvement in the First World War? Germany was the main culprit of using submarines in order to threaten ships of other countries and their main target Great Britain. In 1915 when Germany released a policy called “Unrestricted submarine warfare”, this would give Germany the right to attack ships that would cross the war zone. This would later on lead

Mine warfare is the strategic, operational, and tactical use of sea mines and the countermeasures to defeat them. These weapons are so dangerous and efficient which is why foreign navies and even terrorist possess these weapons. The history of these weapons goes back to 1776; a year after our nation’s Navy was born. A man named David Bushnell created a mine that was composed of a watertight keg, filled with black powder and a flintlock detonator which was suspended from a float (Levie). The kegs

But, it is capable of conducting open-ocean operation as well. It is designed to defeat asymmetric threats. Mines, submarines and fast surface craft can be shown as unique examples of asymmetric threats. The LCS, which is a fast, maneuverable surface ship, provides warfighting capabilities for tasks/missions including mine warfare, anti-submarine warfare (ASW) and anti-surface warfare (ASUW). The RMS, which will be deployed on LCS, is a component of the LCS Mine Countermeasures (MCM) mission package

member of the "submarine club". With the existing six submarines, Vietnam's ability to defend and control territorial waters has increased significantly. However, with the topographic features of the South China Sea, kilos can not work effectively in certain areas such as estuaries, bays or islands, this is necessary for the purpose of Vietnam's sea defense in the current geopolitical situation. So, sooner or later, the second submarine brigade, that is based on high mobility mini submarine that replenishing

Introduction Sound has different properties in water than it has in the air; it travels much faster and further than that of in the air. So many sea animals have poor vision and rely upon sound as a primary sense. As well as sea animals and fish also use and respond to underwater sound. Noise pollution can cause deafness and interference with fish communication, schooling and habitat utilization (Weilgart 2008). There is also a possibility that marine mammal’s ability to catch prey can be interrupted

Active Denial System The Active Denial System (ADS) is an electromagnetic, directed energy, non-lethal weapon designed by the US military and built by Raytheon (Cumming, 2010). The ADS works by producing 95GHz electromagnetic radiation that is focused in a beam at a target (Wikipedia, 2014). These 3.2mm electromagnetic waves work on the same principal as a microwave oven. The waves excite water and fat molecules instantly heating them through dielectric heating (Wikipedia, 2014). Due to the extremely

and refused to fight their own people. For example, the Germans who were a large immigrant group during that time. However, as time went by, America’s view slowly started to change because of the fear of a possible economic collapse, unrestricted submarine warfare and the Zimmerman telegram which all led to the United States entrance into the Fist World War. A Possible Economic Collapse One reason America entered the First World War was because many feared an economic collapse. In the initially
