HMS E56 was a British E-class submarine built by William Denny, Dumbarton as Yard No.1033. She was laid down on 1 December 1914, launched 19 June 1916 and was delivered on 8 August 1916.[1] E56 was sold for scrap at Granton, Edinburgh, on 9 June 1923.

Design

Like all post-E8 British E-class submarines, E56 had a displacement of Шаблон:Convert at the surface and Шаблон:Convert while submerged. She had a total length of Шаблон:Convert[2] and a beam of Шаблон:Convert. She was powered by two Шаблон:Convert eight-cylinder two-stroke diesel engines and two Шаблон:Convert electric motors made by Crossley.[1][3][4] 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.[2] E56 was capable of operating submerged for five hours when travelling at Шаблон:Convert.

E56 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.[3]

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.[2]
