HMS ''P611'' was a submarine of the originally built for the Turkish Navy intended to be named ''Oruç Reis'', but commissioned into the Royal Navy after the outbreak of war. She was a modified British S class design launched on 19 July 1940 by Vickers Armstrong at Barrow. Due to the pressing need for her, she was commissioned into the Royal Navy on 1 December 1941 so she could be sent to Turkey. It was not until 26 March 1942 that she left the Clyde for Gibraltar. On 7 April she left Gibraltar for Alexandria, where she arrived on 25 April. She arrived at the Turkish naval base at İskenderun on 9 May 1942 and was handed over to the Turkish Navy as ''Oruç Reis''. She would continue in service with the Turkish Navy, operating in the Mediterranean, and remained in service after the war ended. She was finally broken up in 1957. ==References== *(【引用サイトリンク】 title= HMS ''P611'' ) *(【引用サイトリンク】 title= P311 to P714 ) * *Submarines, War Beneath The Waves, From 1776 To The Present Day, by Robert Hutchinson 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HMS P611」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
