Who owned the u-boats that were sunk in WW1?
This question appears to be about U-Boats or submarines. In WW 1, the Germans had a large submarine fleet that terrorized Atlantic Ocean shipping.

There were Allied defenses against U-Boats and using various explosives a good number of Germany's submarines were sunk.
