The Allies employed several strategies to protect their ships from U-boat attacks during World War II. They used convoy systems, grouping merchant ships together for protection, which made it more difficult for U-boats to target individual vessels. Additionally, they implemented improved anti-submarine warfare tactics, including the use of depth charges, sonar technology, and air cover from aircraft, which helped to detect and engage U-boats effectively. These measures significantly reduced the effectiveness of U-boat operations over time.

It involved the struggle for control of the Atlantic sea routes, crucial for transporting troops, supplies, and resources. The Allies ultimately won by employing advanced technology, including sonar and depth charges, improving convoy tactics, and using air cover to protect merchant ships from U-boat attacks. This strategic coordination, along with the production of more ships and the breaking of German codes, allowed the Allies to secure vital supply lines and diminish the effectiveness of German submarines.
