Шаблон:Infobox ship imageШаблон:Infobox ship careerШаблон:Infobox ship characteristicsHMS E2 (originally ordered as HMS D10) was a British E class submarine built by Chatham Dockyard. E2 was laid down on 14 February 1911 and launched on 23 November 1912.

Design
The early British E-class submarines, from E1 to E8, had a displacement of Шаблон:Convert at the surface and Шаблон:Convert while submerged. They had a length overall of Шаблон:Convert and a beam of Шаблон:Convert, and were powered by two Шаблон:Convert Vickers eight-cylinder two-stroke diesel engines and two Шаблон:Convert electric motors.[1][2] The class had a maximum surface speed of Шаблон:Convert and a submerged speed of Шаблон:Convert, with a fuel capacity of Шаблон:Convert of diesel affording a range of Шаблон:Convert when travelling at Шаблон:Convert, while submerged they had a range of Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert.[1]
The early 'Group 1' E class boats were armed with four 18 inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes, one in the bow, one either side amidships, and one in the stern; a total of eight torpedoes were carried. Group 1 boats were not fitted with a deck gun during construction, but those involved in the Dardanelles campaign had guns mounted forward of the conning tower while at Malta Dockyard.[1]
E-Class submarines had wireless systems with Шаблон:Convert power ratings; in some submarines, these were later upgraded to Шаблон:Convert systems by removing a midship torpedo tube. Their maximum design depth was Шаблон:Convert although in service some reached depths of below Шаблон:Convert. Some submarines contained Fessenden oscillator systems.[3]
Crew
Her complement was three officers and 28 men.[3]
Service history
When war was declared with Germany on 5 August 1914, E2 was based at Harwich, in the 8th Submarine Flotilla of the Home Fleets.[4]
On 14 August 1915, E2 sank Turkish minelayer Samsun with her two officers and eight crew near Erdek.
