HMS E39 was a British E-class submarine launched by Palmers, Jarrow in 1916 and was completed by Armstrong Whitworth, Newcastle upon Tyne. She was launched on 18 May 1916 and was commissioned in October 1916.

HMS E39 was sold on 13 October 1921, but in December 1922 she foundered in Watwick Bay at the entrance to Milford Haven, Pembrokeshire, while on tow to the shipbreakers.

Design

Like all post-E8 British E-class submarines, E39 had a displacement of Шаблон:Convert at the surface and Шаблон:Convert while submerged. She had a total length of Шаблон:Convert and a beam of Шаблон:Convert. She was powered by two Шаблон:Convert Vickers eight-cylinder two-stroke diesel engines and two Шаблон:Convert electric motors. The submarine had a maximum surface speed of Шаблон:Convert and a submerged speed of Шаблон:Convert. British E-class submarines had fuel capacities of Шаблон:Convert of diesel and ranges of Шаблон:Convert when travelling at Шаблон:Convert. E39 was capable of operating submerged for five hours when travelling at Шаблон:Convert.

E39 was armed with a [[QF 12-pounder 12 cwt naval gun|12-pounder Шаблон:Convert]] QF gun mounted forward of the conning tower. She had five 18 inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes, two in the bow, one either side amidships, and one in the stern; a total of 10 torpedoes were carried.

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.

Crew

Her complement was three officers and 28 men.
