HMS Trident from the Mediterranean to the Far East

Trident's varied career shows how a T-class submarine could shift theatres and engage submarines, warships, and landing craft.

Notes

HMS Trident served in the Mediterranean before deploying to the Far East in 1943. She made two unsuccessful submarine-on-submarine attacks and later engaged the Japanese training cruiser Kashii. Her four-inch gun was also used against landing craft. This range of targets extended well beyond the fleet ambush that had shaped the class's torpedo arrangement.
