During World War I, submarines, primarily the German U-boats, operated by utilizing a combination of diesel engines for surface travel and electric batteries for submerged operations. They could dive to avoid detection and launch torpedoes against enemy ships, disrupting supply lines and engaging naval vessels. The effectiveness of submarines was enhanced by their stealth and ability to strike unexpectedly, leading to significant changes in naval warfare and prompting the development of countermeasures by other nations. Submarine warfare became a pivotal aspect of the conflict, influencing strategies and international policies.
