HMS D6 was one of eight D-class submarine built for the Royal Navy during the first decade of the 20th century. DescriptionThe D-class submarines were designed as improved and enlarged versions of the preceding C class, with diesel engines replacing the dangerous petrol engines used earlier. D3 and subsequent boats were slightly larger than the earlier boats. They had a length of {{convert|164|ft|7|in|m|1}} overall, a beam of {{convert|20|ft|5|in|m|1}} and a mean draught of {{convert|11|ft|5|in|m|1}}. They displaced {{convert|495|LT|t}} on the surface and {{convert|620|LT|t}} submerged.[1] The D-class submarines had a crew of 25 officers and other ranks and were the first to adopt saddle tanks.[2] For surface running, the boats were powered by two {{convert|600|bhp|lk=in|0|adj=on}} diesels, each driving one propeller shaft. When submerged each propeller was driven by a {{convert|275|hp|0|adj=on}} electric motor. They could reach {{convert|14|kn|lk=in}} on the surface and {{convert|9|kn}} underwater. On the surface, the D class had a range of {{convert|2500|nmi|lk=in}} at {{convert|10|kn}}.[2] The boats were armed with three 18-inch (45 cm) torpedo tubes, two in the bow and one in the stern. They carried one reload for each tube, a total of six torpedoes.[2] Construction and careerD6 was laid down on 24 February 1910 by Vickers at their Barrow shipyard, launched 24 October 1911 and was commissioned on 19 April 1912. D6 was sunk by UB-73 73 miles north of Inishtrahull Island off the west coast of Ireland on 24 or 28 June 1918. There were two survivors who were taken prisoner.[3] Their post-war report apparently prompted the British to conclude that the torpedo that sank her had employed a magnetic pistol.[4]Notes1. ^Harrison, Chapter 4 2. ^1 2 Gardiner & Gray, p. 87 3. ^NavalHistory.net 4. ^Admiralty.
