The 70th Congress asked for 40 airships in 1940 and based on a rise in U-boat activity during WWII, the number of blimps in flight would increase to 133 in total. 35,600 operational flights were made in the Atlantic and 20,300 in the Pacific from 1942-1945. Navy Blimp SP-12 participated in the sinking of the last German U-boat used in WWII. After WWII, the Navy decreased its blimp fleet, eventually ceasing usage of the airships in the 1960s.
