The document discusses the history and development of submarines from the early 17th century up to World War 1. It describes some of the first submarines like one built in 1620 by Cornelius van Drebbel and how submarines have changed significantly since then. During World War 1, technical developments greatly improved submarines that were used as weapons by Germany. Examples mentioned include the Deutschland class U-boats that could carry cargo and the U-155 combat submarine. Submarines were also used by other countries in World War 1 like the USS O-7 from the United States and the HMAS AE2 from Australia.

German Deutschland class of merchant U-boats , each 315 feet long with two large cargo compartments. U-boats could carry 700 tons of cargo at 12- to 13-knot speeds on the surface and at seven knots submerged. Now the submarine called Kotor . This submarine was made by German .
- 4. The U-155 The U-155 when fitted with torpedo tubes and deck guns, and, with seven similar submarines, it served in a combat role during the latter stages of the war. The U-155 was " standard " submarine of World War I measured slightly over 200 feet in length and displaced less than 1,000 tons on the surface.
- 5. Submarine USS 0 7 USS O-7 , a 521-ton O-1 class submarine built at Quincy, Massachusetts , was commissioned in July 1918. When the 11 November 1918 Armistice brought the First World War's fighting to an end, O-7 returned Also The submarine is using in World War 2.
- 6. The HAMS AE2 HMAS AE2 (originally known as AE2) was an E-class submarine of the Royal Australian Navy. The AE2 is measured slightly over 181 feet in length and displaced less than 800 tons on the surface. the submarine’s speed was 15 knots(surfaced), 10knots(submerged).
