After the war, the [["B" Class Submarine (1904)|"B"]] and "C" class submarines were described as "very good in their day", but with too small a radius to be able to truly operate on enemy coasts.{{UKTHVol3Part21|p. 5}}

 +
==Periscopes==
 +
''C 1'' through ''C 16'' were the first British boats to have two hand-raised periscopes of 12-13 foot length, rather than just a single one.  This was adopted due to the narrow 60 degree field of view.  Apparently, it was possible to operate the two at the same time to double the situational awareness on board.  One was in the conning tower and the second mounted abaft.<ref name=RNS>[http://rnsubs.co.uk/articles/development/scope.html RN Subs website].</ref>
 +
 +
''C 21'' through ''C 38'', on the other hand, had just a single stereoscopic periscope of 21 foot length in the conning tower.<ref name=RNS/>

Latest revision as of 15:29, 5 April 2024

The Royal Navy's thirty-eight "C" Class Submarines entered service between 1907 and 1910.

They were similar to the preceding class and were suited only to local defence by virtue of their modest endurance.

At the start of the war, there were 37 in commission.[1]

After the war, the "B" and "C" class submarines were described as "very good in their day", but with too small a radius to be able to truly operate on enemy coasts.[2]

Torpedoes

  • two 18-in tubes forward, four torpedoes

Periscopes

C 1 through C 16 were the first British boats to have two hand-raised periscopes of 12-13 foot length, rather than just a single one. This was adopted due to the narrow 60 degree field of view. Apparently, it was possible to operate the two at the same time to double the situational awareness on board. One was in the conning tower and the second mounted abaft.[3]

C 21 through C 38, on the other hand, had just a single stereoscopic periscope of 21 foot length in the conning tower.[3]
