    H.M.S."SUNFISH"
    Submarine,  Shark Class
    The Shark class of sea-going submarines is of
    improved Swordfish design. It numbers eight
    ships and consists of a useful though relatively
    small type of vessel. The Sunfish is one of the
    latest additions, having been completed in
    1937. Her armament consists of one 3-inch
    gun and six tubes for 21-inch torpedoes. She
    can dive with great rapidity, an advantage
    when patrolling in coastal waters. Her ton-
    nage is 670 on the surface and 960 when
    submerged, with respective speeds of 15 and
    10 knots, corresponding with horse powers
    of 1,900 and 1,300. She has a complement of
    40, and is capable of carrying 40 tons of fuel.
    The cost of these vessels varies between
    Sterling 230,000 and Sterling 245,000.
    The Sunfish was built at Chatham Dockyard.
