She had a total length of Шаблон:Convert, a pressure hull length of Шаблон:Convert, an overall beam of Шаблон:Convert, a height of Шаблон:Convert, and a draught of Шаблон:Convert.

Service history

U-1019 had a Schnorchel underwater-breathing apparatus fitted out sometime before February 1945.[1]

On 1 February 1945, U-1019 left Horten on her first, and only, war patrol. Sixteen days into her patrol, 16 February 1945, U-1019 was attacked by a Polish manned Wellington of the 304/Q Squadron RAF west of the Hebrides, she suffered only moderate damage. She arrived at Trondheim on 9 April 1945, after 68 days on patrol with no further incidents.[1]

U-1019 surrendered on 9 May 1945, at Trondheim and was transferred on 29 May 1945, to Loch Ryan. Of the 156 U-boats that eventually surrendered to the Allied forces at the end of the war, U-1019 was one of 116 selected to take part in Operation Deadlight. U-1019 was towed out and sank on 7 December 1945, by naval gunfire.[1]

The wreck now lies at Шаблон:Coord.[1]
