It was used during the Second World War as part of the Pacific fleet in the Pacific against Japan. In all likelihood the Bullhead on August 6, 1945, the day of the first atomic bombing on Hiroshima as the last ship of the US Navy during the Second World War. [2] [5] The boat was the only ship of the US Navy, which the name Bullhead wore. [5] The name serves as a name for different different types of bone fish, including the groppy. (\u2192 See also: USS Cabezon (SS-334).) The Bullhead was a diesel-electric patrol submarine of the Balao class. The Balao class was only slightly improved compared to the Gato class and, like those for long offensive patrol trips, was designed in the Pacific. In particular, the diving depth, based on the experience during the war against Japan, was enlarged and the interior improved. The boats of both classes were largely like externally and in their dimensions. Technology [ Edit | Edit the source text ] The Bullhead Was 95 meters long and 8.3 meters wide, its depth was a maximum of 5.1 meters. It pushed up in 1526 TS, dipped 2424 ts. The drive was carried out by four 16-cylinder diesel engines from General Motors, model 16-278a, which performed 1000 kW (1350 hp) each. The submarine was driven under water by four electric motors with a total of 2740 hp, which covered its energy from two 126-cell accumulators. The engines gave their power over a gear on two waves with one screw each. The speed was a maximum of 20.25 nodes, dipped the Bullhead still 8.75 knots. The possible diving time was 48 hours, the maximum design depth was 120 meters. In the fuel tanks, 440 cubic meters of diesel fuel were bunkered, so the boat had a driving area of \u200b\u200b11,000 nautical miles at 10 knots. [2] [4] Arming [ Edit | Edit the source text ] The main armament of the Bullhead consisted of ten 533 mm goal pedor ears, six in the bow, four aft, for which 24 torpedoes were on board. A 5-inch deck gun was attached behind the tower. A 20 mm-oerlikon machine cannon and a 40 mm flak were housed on the winter garden. In addition, two 12.7 mm machine rifles could be installed on various positions of the ship if necessary and stowed back on the boat after use. The USS had to place enemy ships Bullhead About a JK\/QC – and a QB -Onar under the bow, were on deck JP -Hydrophone installed. There was a SD -Radar with 20 nautical mileage attached to the location of enemy aircraft, the submarine also had one SJ -Surface search radar with approximately twelve nautical miles. In dipped condition, the periscope could ST -Radar with eight nautical lines also a location of enemy ships. [5] [6] The submarine with the number SS-332 was laid on October 21, 1943 at Electric Boat in Groton, Connecticut on Kiel. The stacking and baptism took place on July 16, 1944. Bullhead Mrs. Howard R. Doyle was baptized. As commander, Commander W. T. Griffith took over the leadership of the boat, which initially carried out rehearsal and exercises off the New England coast. From March 21, 1945 until his downfall on August 6, 1945 Bullhead in use on the Pacific War Place. During this time she completed two enemy trips, mostly operating in the South China Sea and in the Gulf of Siam. First enemy trip (March\/April 1945) [ Edit | Edit the source text ] During the first enemy ride, her main task was to draw positions along the flight routes attacking allied aircraft during their attacks against Japan. In this function could Bullhead Save three crew members of a crashed B-29 superfortress. In addition, the Dongsha Islands were shot at the on-board artillery twice to destroy the Japanese radio station there. Second enemy trip (May\/June 1945) [ Edit | Edit the source text ] During the second enemy ride, her main task was again securing allied air raids. In addition, two smaller cargo ships were torpedoed and sunk during operations in the South China Sea and in the Gulf of Siam on June 18 and 25, 1945. [7] In addition, the Bullhead On June 19, a small Japanese submarine hunter settled and, in addition to it, sank a small sailing saver using a gunfire. In addition, two other light submarine hunters were also damaged by gunfire, as was another small freighter. [5] [7] Third enemy trip (July\/August 1945) [ Edit | Edit the source text ] On July 31, 1945, the Bullhead to your third and last enemy trip. Together with the sister ship Uss Capitaine (SS-336) and USS Puffer (SS-268) (Gato class), she was to form a coordinated submarine group, called “Wolfpack”, and operate in Java Lake. On August 6th the Bullhead The last sign of life, when she reported, has just passed Lombokstrasse between Bali and Lombok. This was the last message from the Bullhead and your crew. After the war, research resulted in the fact that the boat was probably sunk shortly after stopping the position report. On August 6, 1945, a Japanese Mitsubishi Ki-51 Japanese aircraft reported two direct hits and then for ten minutes to climb air bubbles and oil at the point where the attacked submarine disappeared. All 84 crew members died.
