EML Kalev
EML ''Kalev'' was one of two submarines of the Republic of Estonia launched in 1936 at Vickers and Armstrongs Ltd. in England. Her sister, ''Lembit'', survived the Second World War.
==History==
The ''Kalev'' was the second pre-war Estonian Navy submarine. Estonia is a maritime nation and, as every country with a long coastline, has to defend and safeguard its territorial waters. With due regard to the experiences of World War I, the submarines found their proper application in the pre-Second World War Estonian Navy. The collection organised by the Submarine Fleet Foundation in May 1933 developed into one of the most successful undertakings among the similar events demonstrating a nationwide determination to defend one’s country.
In the course of building and testing two submarines, the Estonian crews got a top-level naval training of the time in England in 1935–1937. In the period of 1937–1940 the submarines ''Lembit'' and ''Kalev'' were the most imposing naval vessels of the Estonian Navy. Their non-interference upon annexation of Estonia by the USSR was a political decision made irrespective of the will of the navy.〔http://www.meremuuseum.ee/?op=body&id=45 Estonian Maritime Museum〕
