}} | The German Type UE I submarine was an ocean-going single-hull submarine with saddle tanks built by AG Vulkan in Hamburg and Kaiserliche Werft Danzig. The Type UE I was equipped with two six-cylinder Benz engines for {{convert|900|hp}} for a surface top speed of {{convert|9.6|kn}} to {{convert|10.6|kn}}. Armed with a single torpedo tube forward and aft, plus one {{convert|8.8|cm|in|sp=us|abbr=on}} SK L/30 deck gun (U-72 received a {{convert|10.5|cm|in|sp=us|abbr=on}} SK L/45 gun in 1917), its main weapon were the 38 mines in two minelaying tubes. The boats were crewed by four officers and 28 men for a complement of 32.[1] List of Type UE I submarines[1]| Boat | Fate |
