The Barracudas class was the first of the V-boats (a series of submarine designs built by the United States after World War I). The were three ships in this class: V-1(Barracuda),V-2(Bass), and V-3(Bonita). It is the largest submarine class in the game, being 104 meters long. Surfaced, they reached speeds of 21 knots, enough to keep up with capital ships of that age. Later, ships became faster, and as such, they no longer were able to keep up with the fleet. In 1945, the first two boats were sold for scrap, and the third was used as a sonar target.
