Needing S-boat webpages

CinC Battleforce · 03-17-08, 09:51 AM

does anyone have or know where i can find webpages on the USN S-boats. There was a site dedicated them i found a long time ago, but can't find it now.

This is the closest I could come:
http://www.ibiblio.org/hyperwar/USN/ships/ships-ss.html

and:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_...lass_submarine

I know it's a bad idea to trust wiki, but this actually seems to be very well put together. I couldn't find anything better. Sorry

That's Ric's "Through The Looking Glass" page. There is a few links to some S-class pics and stuff on the right.

The best source for S boats is not online but rather in Norman Friedman's book U.S. Submarines Through 1945. He dedicates a whole chapter to S boat development.
