A T-class submarine. These vessels fought in all theatres in the Second World War and suffered around 25 percent losses. They were particularly vulnerable in the Mediterranean, where their large size made them easily visible from the air in the clear waters, but they had much more success elsewhere.
Fifty-three members of the class were built just before and during the Second World War, where they played a major role in the Royal Navy's submarine operations.The Royal Navy disposed of its last operational boat in 1969, although it retained one permanently moored as a static training submarine until 1974. The last surviving boat, serving in the Israel Sea Corps, was scrapped in 1977.
This model is dedicated to the sailors from British Submarines in the WW2 which remain in eternal patrol #submarine #ww2
