Brits got six S-class and three R-class (looked pretty much as S-class) boats on lend lease.
All of them stayed in Antlantic Theater and were stationed at:
Halifax -2 boats;
Bermuda, Halifax - 1;
Newfoundland - 1;
UK - 2;
South Africa -1;
Gibraltar, Plymouth, Portsmouth -1.
One was given to Polish and sunk by mistake at the Norwegian coast.
