HMS R10

Marine Vehicles

HMS R10 was one of ten R class submarines built for the Royal Navy during the First World War, a specialised hunter killer type designed with an emphasis on submerged performance. She was laid down on 7 December 1917 by Armstrong Whitworth, launched on 5 October 1918 and commissioned on 12 April 1919, too late for combat. She displaced 410 long tons on the surface and 503 long tons submerged, was 163 feet 9 inches long, and had a single diesel engine for surface running and an electric motor submerged, with six 18 inch bow torpedo tubes. She was sold on 19 February 1929 to Cashmore of Newport and broken up.
