U-boat: noun – German, abbreviation of Unterseeboot = 'undersea boat'; a submarine (particularly a German one).
'The U-boat surfaced to vent off the collected foul gasses, caused by the cook's failure to refrigerate the beef, and discovered it was surrounded by warships that were decidedly unfriendly.'
