Title: Imperial Russian Navy submarine from 1916 found
Post by: WallysWorld on July 30, 2015, 12:15:14 PM
The wreck of a submarine found off Sweden's coast was probably a Tsarist-era Russian vessel that collided with a ship about a century ago, the country's military has announced.

"We are most likely talking about the Russian Som-class submarine – nicknamed Catfish – which sank after a collision with a Swedish vessel in 1916 during the first world war and before the Russian Revolution," the Swedish armed forces said.
