| 1877 | Cormorant 1877 - 1889 | Launched |
| 1911 | E 6 (I 86) | Laid Down |
| 1917 | D 8 (I 78) | Sank U45 |
| 1939 | Seal (N 37) | HMS Seal briefly put into Perim harbour. She departed later the same day to resume her patrol. |
| 1939 | Seahorse (S 98) | HMS Seahorse moved from Rosyth to Dundee. |
| 1942 | Sahib (P 212) | HMS Sahib sinks the Italian sailing vessel Ina S. with gunfire and demolition charges 8 miles of Isola Rossa, Sardinia, Italy. |
| 1942 | Truculent (P 315) | Launched |
| 1944 | Virtue (P 75) | HMS Virtue fires three torpedoes against an auxiliary patrol vessel north-west of Psathoura Island, Greece. The torpedoes miss. |
| 1945 | Sibyl (P 217) | HMS Sibyl was the first British submarine to surface in Singapore harbour at the surrender of the Japanese. |
| 1998 | HMCS Okanagan | HMCS Okanagan paid off. |
B 10 (I 20) |
|
| Class: | 1903 - 1906: B Class |
| Built By: | |
| Build Group: | B |
|
Fate: On 9th August 1916, B10 was tied up alongside the Depot Ship Marco Polo in Venice. During an air raid by Austrian aircraft B10 was damaged by a bomb and sank. The Submarine was later raised and placed in dry dock for refit/repair. During these repairs the Submarine was set on fire by a welder's torch and was written off. Sold to the Italian government for scrap. |
|
The submarine revolutionized naval warfare, progressing from the crude, steam-driven craft of the American Civil War to the silent nuclear machines that can cruise for months underwater without surfacing, only limited by the endurance of their crews, and carry intercontinental missiles mounting multiple nuclear warheads.
Submarines and Deep-Sea Vehicles traces the history of these vessels, starting with the earliest submersible craft, to the stealthy nuclear giants of the modern age. Since the end of programs for the exploration and exploitation of space, man has turned his attention to a frontier much closer to home, the ocean.
This is a highly illustrated examination of the remarkable technology that has been developed to enable man to explore a hidden world tens of thousands of feet deep, in conditions just as extreme as those found in space.
The sea offers man numerous resources and is the medium for a wide range of activities, spawning an equally diverse array of vessels to exploit them. Ranging from the military stealth submarines of the Cold War to biological research vessels, to the latest remotely-operated machines,
Submarines and Deep-Sea Vehicles is a stunning guide to man's exploration and exploitation of the fascinating world under the ocean and still our greatest frontier.
