U-10-class submarine
The ''U-10'' class was a class of five submarines or U-boats of the Austro-Hungarian Navy ((ドイツ語:Kaiserliche und Königliche Kriegsmarine ''or'' K.u.K. Kriegsmarine)) during World War I. The class was similar to the German Type UB I submarine of the German Imperial Navy ((ドイツ語:Kaiserliche Marine)); the first two boats delivered to Austria-Hungary had previously been commissioned in Kaiserliche Marine.
The ''U-10'' class as a whole did not have much wartime success, with three of the boats sinking either one or no ships. Only one boat, sank more than of enemy ships. Of the five submarines of the class, only was sunk during the war; the remaining four were delivered as war reparations and broken up by 1920.
== Background ==
The Austro-Hungarian Navy's U-boat fleet at the beginning of World War I consisted of six largely experimental submarines, two of which were not operational.〔Gardiner, p. 341.〕〔 and were in drydock awaiting diesel engines to replace their inadequate gasoline engines. See: Gardiner, pp. 340–41.〕 The Navy did have five s under construction in Germany, but a perceived inability to sail the completed submarines past Gibraltar to Pola led to a hasty decision to sell them to Germany,〔〔In April 1915, some five months after the sale of the ''U-7'' boats, the German U-boat successfully sailed into the Mediterranean via Gibraltar, proving that delivery of the ''U-7'' boats to Austria-Hungary would have been possible. See: Gardiner, p. 343.〕 a severe setback for Austria-Hungary's U-boat fleet.〔
In order to bolster their fleet, which had already been boosted by the recovery and commissioning of the French submarine ''Curie'' as ''U-14'' in 1915, the Austro-Hungarian Navy purchased five German UB-type coastal submarines, which had the advantages of short construction time and the ability to be shipped by rail—which avoided the perceived pitfalls of sea delivery.〔〔The performance of the German Type UB I U-boats was well known in Austria because the Imperial German Navy submarines , , and had been shipped from Germany and assembled and launched at Pola.
