U-boats, specifically the Type VII, typically held around 100 to 120 tons of fuel. This allowed them to operate for approximately 8,000 to 10,000 nautical miles at a cruising speed of 10 knots. Fuel capacity varied by U-boat class and mission requirements, but this range was common for operational U-boats during World War II.
