Sub tails!

Yes, I was going to Google "Espadon" to see if they were sisters but I forgot. After I did I found out that it is not. All of the sisters of the Argonaute start with an "A". Im sure that they are similar though.

Here are the pictures of what I said was an italian NAZARIO SAURO CLASS. She's the LEONARDO DA VINCI at her launching day. have a look in the box on port quarter to identify her with the picture Greenman posted.
As a curiosity, a pictUre of Spanish Navy Submarine Base at Cartagena, in the early seventies. Three of the four GUPPYs we had (S32 ISAAC PERAL (EX USS396 RONQUIL); S34 COSME GARCÍA (EX USS385 BANG); S35 NARCISO MONTURIOL (EX USS368 JALLAO), and a DAPHNÉ (S64 NARVAL) in the background. You can also see a copule of FLETCHERS and a GREARING - FRAM II.
Excuse me for the poor quality of the pics, but they were scanned from old magazines.

Looking at these two pictures together and the surrounding cranes and features it looks like you are correct reddevil. Horray for magazine backissues. Looks like the bottom picture has a scaffold around the upper sail which makes it look different than the sail in the other picture.

Guess whos hind quarters this is. You dont have to come up with a name, just a class will do

[greenman407]

AW, You know what it is! Its a Oberon class. Here is another view.

[greenman407]

It looks like a Type 21 but its not. What am I??

[reddevil]

German TYPE XXI

[greenman407]

Nope, its Russian, a bad copy of the Type 21.

ZULU?..........

[greenman407]

My info has it as a Whiskey.

[He Who Shall Not Be Named]

Likely a WHISKEY. Those guys in mid-ground point to a not terribly big boat

Oh! Im sorry, I forgot about this one. YES, I believe that you are correct Dave.

Here are the hindquarters of a Dutch submarine. What class?

[Outrider]

The sub is the Dolfijn class Tonijin, which is a museum ship in den Helder, NL.

Isnt that funny, my info had it as a Dolfijn class but its name was Potvis. But from the links that you posted it looks like you are right. Thanks Outrider
