Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsPerle was a Шаблон:Sclass built for the French Navy in the mid-1930s. Laid down in 1931, she was launched in July 1935 and commissioned in March 1937. In November 1942, after Operation Torch, Perle joined the Allied fleet. While returning from refitting in the United States, Perle was mistaken for a U-boat by an aircraft from the British ship Empire MacCallum and sunk.
Design
Perle had a surfaced displacement of Шаблон:Convert and a submerged displacement of Шаблон:Convert. Her dimensions were Шаблон:Convert long, with a beam of Шаблон:Convert and a draught of Шаблон:Convert. Propulsion while surfaced was provided by two Normand-Vickers diesel motors with a total of Шаблон:Convert and while submerged by two electric motors providing a total of Шаблон:Convert through two shafts giving a maximum speed of Шаблон:Convert while surfaced and Шаблон:Convert while submerged. Her bunkers of Шаблон:Convert of oil fuel gave her a surfaced range of Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert, and Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert and her batteries a submerged range of Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert. She carried a complement of 42 men[1] and could dive up to Шаблон:Convert.
The Saphir-class submarines were constructed to be able to launch torpedoes and lay mines without surfacing. The moored contact mines they used contained Шаблон:Convert of TNT and operated at up to Шаблон:Convert of depth. They were attached to the submarine's exterior under a hydrodynamic protection.
Service history
Laid down in 1931, Perle was launched in July 1935 and commissioned in March 1937. In November 1942, after Operation Torch, Perle joined the Allied fleet and was assigned to Dakar. After taking part in several operations, Perle sailed to the United States for refitting. On 26 June 1944, it left port and, after stopping in Newfoundland, Perle set sail for the port of Dundee in Scotland to participate in operations off Norway. On 8 July, Perle was mistaken for a U-boat by an Allied Fairey Swordfish and sunk in position Шаблон:Coord.[2] Approximately 17 of the crew of 42 survived the sinking but only one was rescued. The crew killed aboard Perle were the last casualties among French submariners in World War II.[3][4][5]
