Submarines are sneaky Ace cards in Lost Admiral Returns. Submarines can be used in the battle line to counter enemy battleships and cruisers, but must avoid enemy destroyers and PTs while doing this. Submarines can also be used to hunt down enemy transports, avoiding the bulk of the enemy's fleet through stealth and speed.

Submarines in Lost Admiral Returns game move at the normal pace of other ships in the game, but they can surface to intercept the enemy more quickly, but are much more easily found and killed while surfaced. The bane of submarines are destroyers and PT boats. Destroyers kill submerged submarines in one shot. PT boats kill submerged submarines in two shots.

During World War II in the Battle for the Atlantic,  German submarines and U-boats struggle to torpedo as many British convoy ships as possible without being sunk in turn by royal navy destroyers. Historically the U-boats enjoyed great success in the early days of the war, but were not able to overcome the convoys quickly enough before escorting destroyers learned to hunt down the marauding submarines.
