German submarine U-301 was a Type VIIC U-boat built for Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II. The submarine was laid down on 12 February 1941 at the Flender Werke yard at Lübeck, launched on 25 March 1942, and commissioned on 9 May 1942. During her short career the U-boat sailed on three combat patrols, without sinking or damaging any ships, before she was sunk on 21 January 1943 by a British submarine in the Mediterranean Sea. Design and descriptionGerman Type VIIC submarines were preceded by the shorter Type VIIB submarines. Type VIIC u-boats had a displacement of {{convert|769|t|LT}} on the surface and {{convert|871|t|LT}} while submerged.{{sfn|Gröner|Jung|Maass|1991|pp=43–46}} U-301 had a total length of {{convert|67.10|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a pressure hull length of {{convert|50.50|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a beam of {{convert|6.20|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a height of {{convert|9.60|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, and a draught of {{convert|4.74|m|ftin|abbr=on}}. U-301{{'}}s power was produced by two Germaniawerft F46 six-cylinder, four-stroke supercharged diesel engines producing a total of {{convert|2800 to 3200|PS|kW shp|-1}} for use while surfaced, andtwo Garbe, Lahmeyer & Co. RP 137/c double-acting electric motors producing {{convert|750|PS|kW shp}} total for use while submerged. The submarine had two shafts and two {{convert|1.23|m|ft|abbr=on|0}} propellers. U-301 could submerge to up to {{convert|230|m}} underwater.{{sfn|Gröner|Jung|Maass|1991|pp=43–46}} U-301 had a maximum speed of {{convert|17.7|kn}} while surfaced and a maximum speed of {{convert|7.6|kn}} when submerged.{{sfn|Gröner|Jung|Maass|1991|pp=43–46}} The submarine had a range of {{convert|80|nmi}} at {{convert|4|kn}} while underwater; on the surface, she could travel {{convert|8500|nmi}} at {{convert|10|kn}}. U-301 was fitted with five {{convert|53.3|cm|in|0|abbr=on}} torpedo tubes (four in the bow and one in the stern), fourteen torpedoes or 26 TMA mines, one {{convert|8.8|cm|in|2|abbr=on}} SK C/35 naval gun with 220 rounds, and a {{convert|2|cm|in|sp=us|abbr=on}} C/30 anti-aircraft gun. The submarine had a complement of between 44 and 60 men.{{sfn|Gröner|Jung|Maass|1991|pp=43–46}} Construction and careerOrdered on 6 August 1940, U-301 was laid down on 12 February 1941 at the Flender Werke yard at Lübeck, Northern Germany. The submarine was launched on 25 March 1942,{{sfn|Fontenoy|2007|p=209}} and commissioned on 9 May 1942 under the command of Oberleutnant zur See Willy-Roderich Körner.{{sfn|Niestle|2014|p=XXVI}}[1][2] Between 9 May 1942 and 30 September 1942, U-301 conducted training with the 5th U-boat Flotilla.[1]{{sfn|Ross|Bishop|2016|p=117}} 1st patrolAfter completing her training, U-301 was transferred to the 1st U-boat Flotilla based at Brest in France, for front-line service on 1 October 1942.[1] On that day, U-301 departed Kiel and sailed out into the Atlantic Ocean, operating as part of wolfpack 'Panther' from 11 to 16 October, 'Puma' from 16 to 26, and 'Südwärts' from 24 to 26. U-301 attempted to attack the US-bound convoy ON 139 along with several u-boats on 23 and 24 October, but their attacks were repelled by the escorting ships.{{sfn|Carruthers|2013|pp=124-125}} The submarine arrived in Brest on 7 November. U-301 did not sink any ship during this patrol.[3][1]{{sfn|Ross|Bishop|2016|p=117}} 2nd patrolU-301 sailed from Brest on 3 December 1942, then passed through the Strait of Gibraltar into the Mediterranean Sea and on to the U-boat base at La Spezia in northern Italy, arriving on 14 December. The patrol was also unsucessful.[4][1]{{sfn|Ross|Bishop|2016|p=117}} 3rd patrolTransferred to the 29th U-boat Flotilla on 1 January 1943,{{sfn|Ross|Bishop|2016|p=117}} U-301 sailed on her third and final patrol on 20 January.[2] The next day at 8:48 in the morning, U-301 was sunk west of Bonifacio, Corsica, in position {{coord|41|27|N|07|04|E|dim:400000|display=inline,title}}{{sfn|Heden|2006|p=301}} by torpedoes from the British submarine {{HMS|Sahib|P212|6}}.{{sfn|Niestle|2014|pp=167, XXVI}}{{sfn|Kemp|1999|p=100}}{{sfn|Ross|Bishop|2016|p=241}} According to Sahib{{'}}s log the U-boat was first spotted proceeding on the surface early that morning at a distance of {{Convert|4.5|mi}}. Sahib then closed to {{Convert|2.6|mi}} and into a more favourable position before firing a full salvo of six torpedoes at five second intervals. Three minutes later three explosions were heard, a large cloud of smoke was seen and it was noted that radio transmissions stopped. Sahib closed and recovered the only survivor from the 46 crew, 19-year-old Wilhelm Rahn.[5]{{sfn|Niestle|2014|p=XXVI}} See also
