Title: Submarines nested together
Description: May 1920 Alongside USS Camden (Submarine Tender # 6), in the North River, New York City. They are, from near to far (left to right): USS R-4 (Submarine # 81); USS R-5 (Submarine # 82); USS R-6 (Submarine # 83); USS R-10 (Submarine # 87); USS R-9 (Submarine # 86); USS R-8 (Submarine # 85); USS R-7 (Submarine # 84); USS R-3 (Submarine # 80); USS S-4 (Submarine # 109); and USS S-3 (Submarine # 108). Note that all the R class submarines have gun platforms, but that guns are fitted only on R-10 and R-3. S-4 has a platform for a 4/50 gun (but no gun is installed), while S-3 still has no gun platform. Official U.S. Navy Photograph, from the collections of the Naval History and Heritage Command.
