The names should actually be HMS Explorer and HMS Excalibur

These were experimental submarines built by the Royal Navy to test German experiments in hydrogen-peroxide powered engines.

Kind of wondered about that.

"Exploder" was the nickname, and with darn good reason. British submariners nicknamed HMS Excalibur the "Excruciator" and overall the class was known as the "Blondes" as in hydrogen peroxide used as a cheap hair bleach and technical idea dumb as one thought up by a ...

I draw it alone, using no other Shipbucket inpút. It's a preliminary work. This is the reason they still don't have credit or other information. I'm using a proper Shipbucket template.

PS1: They were called Exploder and Excruciator by their crew. As Krakatoa remarks, their real name were Explorer and Excalibur
PS2: I think Exploder and Excruciator more adequate. I'll ask the authorization to upload them with their real character.

Shipbucket templates have the name of the ship and the name of the author in the upper right corner, and 'shipbucket.com' in the lower right, as shown here http://shipbucket.com/images.php?dir=Pa ... 0x385).png
We always ask for people to put the name and credits on the images, as an google search often turns up these images, which means people can 'use' them for their own purposes, claiming no credit or origin was on the drawing. In this case, credits would be purely your name, so purely your name that would be protected ;)

we always use the real name for the ship in the naming on the template, however there is some space underneath the credits where you can add additional information like this.

I uploaded the wrong file. Still without my credit and name, but with Shipbucket logo.

I need all possible inputs about them. There's no photo of the rear control surfaces. In a text, an officer told that the screws were protected by the horizontal stabilators.

Aft diving planes from what I gather were similar to those on a German Type 21, but might have included a cage feature. Whatever the design, the boat seems to have been a "bodge".
