Design and description
The last 17 boats of the third batch were significantly modified from the earlier boats. They had a stronger hull, carried more fuel and their armament was revised. The submarines had a length of Шаблон:Convert overall, a beam of Шаблон:Convert and a draught of Шаблон:Convert. They displaced Шаблон:Convert on the surface and Шаблон:Convert submerged.[1] The S-class submarines had a crew of 48 officers and ratings. They had a diving depth of Шаблон:Convert.[2]
For surface running, the boats were powered by two Шаблон:Convert diesel engines, each driving one propeller shaft. When submerged each propeller was driven by a Шаблон:Convert electric motor.[3] They could reach Шаблон:Convert on the surface and Шаблон:Convert underwater.[1] On the surface, the third batch boats had a range of Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert and Шаблон:Convert at Шаблон:Convert submerged.[2]
Saga was armed with six 21 inch (533 mm) torpedo tubes in the bow. She carried six reload torpedoes for a grand total of a dozen torpedoes. Twelve mines could be carried in lieu of the torpedoes. The boat was also equipped with a 4-inch (102 mm) deck gun.[1]
Construction and career
HMS Saga built by Cammell Laird and launched on 14 March 1945. Thus far she has been the only ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name Saga, after the Norse Sagas. Built as the Second World War was drawing to a close, she did not see much action. On 10 February 1946 Saga collided with, and sank, the trawler Girl Lena in the English Channel. Saga was sold to the Portuguese Navy in 1948 and renamed NRP Náutilo.[4]
