Trivia
In their secret plans for developing weapons (forbidden by the Versailles Treaty after being defeated in WWI) German navy managed great amounts of money to establish factories and shipyards out of the country. Many German companies settled in the Netherlands and kept on developing weapons which needed armies and navies of third countries to be tested: Turkey was one of the usual partners and so became Spain, thanks to the collaboration of Horacio Echevarrieta and his shipyard in Cádiz. A new submarine was built there for the Spanish Navy, but in Cádiz only parts brought from Rotterdam shipyards were assembled. Once finished, the E-1 turned out to be the best submarine in the world. For 1929 its technology was far better than the British or French models. It inherited the know-how of German engineers and WWI u-boots.
