H.M.S."NARWHAL"
Submarine,  Porpoise. Class
The six ships of the Porpoise class, one of our
biggest and most modern types of submarine,
have proved to be extremely satisfactory.
Fitted for minelaying service, they are also
equipped for torpedo attack. The surface
speed of the Narwhal is 16 knots with
Diesel engines of 3,300 h.p. Submerged, her
speed is just under 9 knots on electric motors.
Her armament consists of six 21-inch bow
torpedo tubes, one 4-inch gun and two
machine guns. The surface tonnage is 1,520
and when submerged rises to 2,140 tons.
A crew of 55 is carried. The Narwhal was
built by Vickers-Armstrongs, Ltd., under
the 1933 estimates and was completed in
1936. The cost of the six ships in the class
averages nearly 400,000 sterling each,
