A submarine was an effective warship, it was a good self-propelled underwater missile. The Americans used the shotgun during war, it had a great effect on clearing away the trenches of the Germans. Machine guns fired 450-650 bullets. It was very effective because it could wipe out soldiers that crossed no mans land.
