The Type VII U-boats were the most frequently built German U-boats in World War II.
703 boats were built by the end of the war.
The Type VIID boats were a 10 m extended version of the VIIC for use as a minelayer.
The mines were stored in three vertical shafts directly behind the conning tower.
The extended hull also allowed more fuel and food to be carried.
