Soviet S class submarine.
Type S medium (Russian: Russian: C - Ñðåäíÿÿ)) submarines (unofficially nicknamed Stalinets) were one of the most widely produced and employed submarine class in the Soviet Navy during World War II. Boats of this class were the most successful and achieved most significant victories among all Soviet submarines. They sunk totally 82,770 Gross Register Tonnage (GRT) of merchant shipping and seven warships, which accounts for about one-third of all tonnage sunk by Soviet submarines. The Russian submarine SS-54 is seen departing Mare Island on 11 November 1942. | USN photo # 6696-42, courtesy of Darryl Baker. | ||||||
