German submarine U-83 was a Type VIIB U-boat of Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II.

She was laid down in the Flender Werke at Lübeck as yard number 291 on 5 October 1939. Launched on 9 December 1940, she was commissioned on 8 February 1941. U-83 served with 1st U-boat Flotilla from 8 February 1941 to 31 December, with the 23rd flotilla from 1 January 1942 to 30 April and with the 29th flotilla from 1 March 1942 until she was sunk.[1]

Design

German Type VIIB submarines were preceded by the shorter Type VIIA submarines. U-83 had a displacement of {{convert|753|t|LT}} when at the surface and {{convert|857|t|LT}} while submerged.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43–44}} She had a total length of {{convert|66.50|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a pressure hull length of {{convert|48.80|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a beam of {{convert|6.20|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, a height of {{convert|9.50|m|ftin|abbr=on}}, and a draught of {{convert|4.74|m|ftin|abbr=on}}. The submarine was powered by two Germaniawerft F46 four-stroke, six-cylinder supercharged diesel engines producing a total of {{convert|2800 to 3200|PS|kW shp|-1}} for use while surfaced, two AEG GU 460/8-276 double-acting electric motors producing a total of {{convert|750|PS|kW shp}} for use while submerged. She had two shafts and two {{convert|1.23|m|ft|abbr=on|0}} propellers. The boat was capable of operating at depths of up to {{convert|230|m}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43–44}}

The submarine had a maximum surface speed of {{convert|17.9|kn}} and a maximum submerged speed of {{convert|8|kn}}.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43–44}} When submerged, the boat could operate for {{convert|90|nmi}} at {{convert|4|kn}}; when surfaced, she could travel {{convert|8700|nmi}} at {{convert|10|kn}}. Differently from other VII B U-Boats, U-83 was fitted with only the front four {{convert|53.3|cm|in|0|abbr=on}} torpedo tubes, and only twelve instead of 14 torpedoes [3], one {{convert|8.8|cm|in|2|abbr=on}} SK C/35 naval gun, 220 rounds, and one {{convert|2|cm|in|abbr=on}} anti-aircraft gun The boat had a complement of between forty-four and sixty.{{sfn|Gröner|1991|pp=43–44}}

Service history

U-83 conducted twelve patrols and sank five ships totalling {{GRT|8,194|disp=long}} and one auxiliary warship - the Q-ship {{HMS|Farouk}}, of {{GRT|91|link=off}}.[4] She damaged one other ship of {{GRT|2,590|link=off}} and damaged the fighter catapult ship {{HMS|Ariguani|F105|6}}, of {{GRT|6,746|link=off}}.[1][5]

U-83 was sunk on 4 March 1943 with all hands southeast of Cartagena in Spain in position {{coord|37|10|N|00|05|E|display=inline,title}}, by three depth charges dropped from an RAF Hudson bomber (500 Squadron).[1]{{sfn|Kemp|1999|p=105}}

Wolfpacks

U-83 took part in three wolfpacks, namely.

  • Bosemüller (28 August - 2 September 1941)
  • Seewolf (2–7 September 1941)
  • Breslau (2–29 October 1941)
