Germany started building UC II Type coastal minelayer submarines in 1916. Sixty-four were commissioned between 1915 and 1917.

These were double hulled boats, unlike the preceding UC I Type.

Torpedoes

  • two 50cm tubes forward (external in early boats)
  • one 50cm tube aft

Seven torpedoes were carried.[1]

Mines

  • six 100cm tubes for eighteen UC 200 type mines

Guns

  • one 8.8cm KL/30 (most boats)
  • one 10.5cm KL/45 (few others)
