This is my first introduction to these boats. Never knew they existed other than the American PT -boats. I'm 72 and have always been a maritime enthusiast. Don't know how I missed these. The U - Boat seems to have gotten all the attention in history. My thoughts.

@@markjenkins4882 Who doubts it? However, the MAS were the first fast assault boats during the First World War. The PTs derive from the design of a offshore powerboat racing from the 1925s and the S1 is from 1930.

Probably because the British called them E Boats.

For every 82 torpedoes the S-boats fired 1 ship was sunk.

We hear little about the magnificent "sharks" because they were so successful compared to anything the allies had.

if they used their main warships as command ships, and then organized these things to attack convoys, along with supply and tenure ships plus commerce raider pirate haulers ships it would be a very effective strategy.

Try to find something about the "Lürssen effect". By putting two additional rudder blades at the stern that were a bit "cross-eyed" the wake was reduced and another knot was attainable, but only under certain conditions/speeds. Hydrodynamics follow their own rules.

Not a good - quite a fallacious analogy - Stukas were slow and cumbersome - Not only did they make a lot of noise, dive bombing also proved itself, compared with other bombing methods, ineffective, otherwise, their only practical use was like your choice of a title proves, only of a propagandistic nature.
