Project history

Submarines of "combined" type storing powerful torpedo armament at ability to laid mines. In construction experience of building of D class submarines was used, and also decisions borrowed from raised British subarine L55. Saddle-tank hull. Mines were carried in two horizontal watertight tubes and laid astern.     Submarines of II series were built for Baltic and Black Seas. Maximal diving depth was 90 m.

Modernizations

1939, L-1; 1941, L-2, L-3; 1945, L-5: CT was rebuilt; - 1 x 1 - 102/43; + 1 x 1 - 100/49 B-24

1940-1941, all: - hydrophone; + Mars-16 hydrophone

1941, L-6: CT was rebuilt; - 1 x 1 - 102/43; + 1 x 1 - 100/49 B-24, 1 x 1 - 45/43 21K

1943, L-3: + type 129 sonar

Naval service

L-1 was sunk 9.11.1941 by German field guns in port of Leningrad. Later she was salvaged but never repaired and stricken in July, 1945. L-2 was lost 14.11.1941 on mines at island Keri. L-6 was lost between 11 and 21.4.1944 in NW part of Black sea; probably, on a mine or was sunk 16.4.1944 by German submarine chaser UJ115 or 18.4.1944 by UJ104 and Romanian gunboat Sublocotenent Ghigulescu.
