| dbo:abstract | While submarines were invented centuries ago, development of self-propelled torpedoes in the latter half of the 19th century dramatically increased the effectiveness of military submarines. Initial submarine scouting patrols against surface warships sank several cruisers in the first month of World War I. Incidental submarine encounters with merchant ships were handled by signalling ships to stop, then sinking them after evacuation of the crew, in accordance with international law. After unrestricted submarine warfare began in February 1915, any ship could unexpectedly sink rapidly from the heavy underwater hull damage inflicted by torpedoes. Many large ships sank without their crews being able to alert friendly forces in time, and the submarines which sank them were too small to rescue more than a few survivors. Heavy personnel casualties continued through World War II, and there have been a few later sinkings. (en) Les torpilles automotrices ont considérablement augmenté l'efficacité des sous-marins. Les premières patrouilles effectuées le premier mois de la Première Guerre mondiale consistait à couler seulement les navires de guerre de type croiseurs. Les mois suivant, les sous-marins signalaient à l'équipage de stopper le navire puis l'envoyaient par le fond en ayant évacué l'équipage, conformément au droit international. Après la guerre sous-marine totale qui débute en février 1915, tout bâtiment de la marine marchande peut être coulé sans avertissement. Bon nombre de grands navires ont été torpillés par des forces alliées inconnues, quelquefois par erreur, et les sous-marins qui les coulaient étaient trop petits pour secourir la totalité des survivants. Les naufrages meurtriers continuèrent pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale, il y eut également quelques naufrages ultérieurs. (fr) |
