The most comprehensive inet source on U-boats is http://www.uboat.net
Please take a look Tony, especially http://www.uboat.net/technical/shipyards/ for the number produced by each shipyard. |
You're too elliptical for me, Kutscha. The production figures you asked me to look at in the well-known U-boat.net give 238 in 1942 and 286 in 1943, which is 20/month in 1942 and 24/month in 1943, where Roskill gave 20 to 30/month. So what's your point? Tony
