Hi,

I'm not sure, but i believe this sub could be a "modern" WWI or pre-war US Holland A class sub (overhaul shape looks like early XXth century Holland submarines : have a look on the restored one preserved at Gosport , England).

I said "modern" because of the conning tower : early Holland class subs had only a very little and basic one, and yours is very improved.

Secondly, look at the rear end of this sub : it looks like the incomming WWI Class S (and early WWII, for training purposes).

Is this right ?

The A class was the Royal Navy's first class of British-designed submarines. Thirteen were built by Vickers at Barrow-in-Furness between 1902 and 1905 as an improvement on the US Plunger class. While there was considerable variation amongst the boats of the class, they were around 100 ft (30 m) long and displaced around 200 tons when submerged. All of the class were propelled underwater by battery-powered electric motors and on the surface by shaft-drive Wolseley petrol engines of 400 bhp (A1), 450 bhp (A2-4) or 600 bhp (A5-12). A13 had an experimental 500 bhp (370 kW) Vickers diesel plant, which proved unreliable.

Armament was two 18 inch (45 cm) torpedo tubes with four torpedoes, except for A-1 which had 1 tube and 3 torpedoes.

The remainder were used during the First World War for harbour defence, A2 and A4 - A6 at Portsmouth, A8 and A9 at Devonport, and A10-A12 at Ardrossan. All survived the war and were converted to training in 1918 and sold in 1919-1920 except for A2 which was wrecked while awaiting disposal and finally sold in 1925.
