Submarine U-53

This sub is visually based on a U-boat type 23 which was build in WW2.
Technically it doesn´t have many similarities with the OG but that means more Torpedos, more speed and more fun for you.

The Alarm you can hear when you spawn it is a notifikation for your depth below kiel and will stop after 20sec on its own

getting started, required

1. Open fresh Air Valve in Engine Room
   
2. Start Air Compressor and shut it off when the Compressed Air Tank (CAT) is full
   
3. Open all the CAT Valves supplies at the diving station

Starting Engine

1. Go to Engine Room and Open one of the Engine Air Intake Valves (Turret Intake is for on water activities, Snorkel is just the Snorkel, what did you expect? And the Compressed Air Tank is for Under Water Purposes and or for increased Power)
   
2. Turn on starter until the engine runs and than activate the Coolant and Exhasut
   
3. Adjust AFR (13.8 is most efficiant) and RPM (More RPM more charging) depending on how much Electricity you need (The lower the battery the lower the Power of the E motor

Driving

• go to the very rear of the Engine room and change the Power of the Motor

Diving

1. Make sure you have enough Compressed Air, that the Compressor is off, that the Engine Air Intake is closed, the Coolant/Exhaust and that you are moving at least a little bit
   
2. Activate the Trim angle, set the desired depth and tahn activate the depth hold
   
3. Open the Top and Bottom Bow Ballast Tank Valves (BBT) and than Top and Bottom Stern Ballast Tank (SBT) (not the Trim tank)
   
4. When the Tanks are fully fludded close the Vlaves again

Trimming

1. Make sure you have enough Compressed Air
   
2. On the left of the Diving Station there is a Dial which tells you how much Trim you need, divide the number by two and now you know how much you need for each Trim Tank. If you have shot a Torpedo add 1250L/Torpedo to the Bow Trim Tank
   
3. Now open the bottom or top Trim Valve for the Bow or Stern Trim Tank (STT, BTT), If you want to get a lot of water into the Tank open Both Top and Bottom Valve
   
4. When you reached the desired Level Close all Trim Valves
   
5. If you want to reduce the Level, open the Compressed Air Valve until you have 1.5-3Bar
   
6. Now open the Bottom Valve
   
7. When you reached the desired level close the Compressed Air Valve
   
8. Leave the Bottom Valve open until you have reached the desired Level again

Surfacing

1. Deactivate Depth Hold
   
2. Open the Compressed Air Vlave for the Ballast Tanks so that the Pressure in the Tanks is at 5-60Bar (changes the speed with wich the water gets pushed out)
   
3. Now open the Bottom Valve of the Ballast Tanks
   
4. When there is not much water left in the Tank try to keep the pressure just above 2 Bar
   
5. If there is no more water left close the Ballast tank Valve and the compressed air valve
   
6. Replenish the Compressed Air

Torpedo reloading

1. Make sure you have enough Compressed Air and that the Outside Torpedo Tube Hatch is closed
   
2. Go to torpedo Room and Open the Compressed Air Torpedo Tube Valve until you have 15Bar of pressure
   
3. Open the Torpedo Tube Valve and Maintain Pressure of 5-15Bar (changes the speed with wich the water gets pushed out)
   
4. When the Tube Level is at 150 close the Compressed Air Torpedo Tube Valve
   
5. when the Pressure in the Tube is at 2Bar close the Torpedo Tube flood Valve until that leave the Torpedo Tube flood Valve open
   
6. Open the inner Torpedo Tube Hatch
   
7. Now adjust the Arms to position 2
   
8. Now Toggel the Arms and adjsut them so that they are clipping a little bit into the middle Torpedo (this helps to get the Torpedo to the correct height when detached Tube)
   
9. Power Up the Slider
   
10. Let it slide Forward
    
11. Release Torpedo 2 (Now the Torpedo should be getting pushed in the Tube
    
12. When the slider reached the end change its direction again
    
13. Now you have to push the Torpedo In the Tube the last bit with your body
    
14. When the Torpedo is locked into place you can close the inner Hacth
    
15. Move the Arms to position 1
    
16. Release Torpedo 1 and detach the safety Rope
    
17. move the Arms so that the Top Torpedo is in the Middle Position (the Torpedo should lock into place)
    
18. Now you can Turn the Slider Power off
    
19. For the Bottom Torpedo its the same principle
