Fourteen "G" Class Submarines were completed for the Royal Navy early in the war. G 15, to be built by White, was cancelled in April, 1915.

The design inaugurated the use of 21-in submarine-borne torpedoes in service.

Torpedoes

  • one 21-in tube in stern, two torpedoes
  • four 18-in tubes (two forward, two broadside), eight torpedoes

Guns

  • one 3-in H.A. gun
