SM ''U-10'' or ''U-X'' was the lead boat of the ''U-10'' class of submarines for the Austro-Hungarian Navy ((ドイツ語:Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine ''or'' K.u.K. Kriegsmarine)) during World War I. She was originally a German Type UB I submarine commissioned into the German Imperial Navy ((ドイツ語:Kaiserliche Marine)) as SM ''UB-1''. SM ''UB-1'' was constructed in Germany and shipped by rail to Pola where she was assembled and launched in January 1915. She was commissioned into the German Imperial Navy later that same month and sank an Italian torpedo boat in June. The boat was handed over to Austria-Hungary and commissioned as SM ''U-10'' in July. In May 1917, ''U-10'' was fired upon by a British submarine, but both of the torpedoes that were launched missed. In July 1918, ''U-10'' hit a mine and was beached with heavy damage. She was towed to Trieste for repairs which remained unfinished at the war's end. ''U-10'' was handed over to Italy as a war reparation and scrapped in 1920. == Design and construction == ''U-10'' was a small, coastal submarine that displaced surfaced and submerged. She featured a single shaft, a single Daimler diesel engine for surface running, and a single electric motor for submerged travel.〔 ''U-10'' was capable of up to while surfaced and while submerged at a diving depth of up to .〔 She was designed for a crew of 17 officers and men.〔 ''U-10'' was equipped with two torpedo tubes located in the front and carried a complement of two torpedoes.〔 German Type UB I submarines were additionally equipped with a machine gun, but it is not clear from sources if ''U-10'', as a former German boat, was either equipped with one or, if so, retained it in Austro-Hungarian service.〔 In October 1916, ''U-10''s armament was supplemented with a 37-mm/23 (1.5 in) quick-firing (QF) gun. This gun was replaced by a 47-mm/23 (1.9 in) QF gun in November 1917.〔 Construction of ''UB-1'' was started on 1 November 1914 at Germaniawerft in Kiel. After her assembly was complete ''UB-1'' was launched on 22 January 1915.〔 After extended negotiations between Austria-Hungary and Germany, in March 1915 it was decided for Germany to supply five submarines of the ''UB I'' type. This model was familiar to the Austro-Hungarian Navy since the Imperial German Navy had reassembled ''UB3'', ''UB 8'', and ''UB 9'' at the Pola factory. The first boat was bought on April 4, 1915, a "sample" ''UB 1'' boat.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AH Submarine Force )〕 This submarine was shipped by rail in sections to Pola, where the sections were riveted together.〔 Though there is no record of how long it took for ''UB-1''s parts to be assembled, a sister boat, , shipped from Germany in mid-April 1915, was assembled in about two weeks.〔Messimer, p. 126–27.〕 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「SM U-10 (Austria-Hungary)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
