Service history
U-1161 was originally handed over to Italy and renamed S 8 in exchange for transport submarines. However, with Italy's surrender on 8 September 1943 the Kriegsmarine took the boat back over on 10 September 1943 at Gotenhafen and recommissioned her on 27 September 1943.
U-1161 was scuttled near Flensburg, in Kupfermühle Bay, on 5 May 1945, as part of Operation Regenbogen. Her wreck was raised and broken up.[1]
