EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the sight of a British E-class submarine, a key component of the Royal Navy's formidable fleet during the First World War. The image was likely taken from another naval vessel during the 1910s, a time when the E class served as the backbone of the submarine fleet in the face of the growing threat posed by enemy warships. The E class, designed and built by Vickers at Barrow-in-Furness, was a significant improvement over its predecessors, with a longer hull, improved engines, and a more streamlined design. These submarines were capable of submerged speeds of up to 11 knots and could remain underwater for several hours, making them effective weapons against enemy surface ships. The E class submarines played a crucial role in the naval warfare of the First World War, conducting numerous successful attacks on enemy merchant and warships. However, their service life was relatively short, with the last surviving E class submarines being withdrawn from service by 1922. This photograph offers a glimpse into the wartime era of the early 20th century, a time when the Royal Navy was at the forefront of naval warfare and the E class submarines were a symbol of British maritime power and innovation.
