HSwMS Valen
From Warlike
HSwMS Valen was the first mine-laying submarine of the Swedish Navy and the only boat of her class. Her design was based on the earlier Bävern-class submarine, itself a derivative of the German Type UB-III U-boat. She was laid down in 1923 and commissioned in 1925 and had an uneventful service life. By World War II, her design was used to build six more modern mine-laying boats, and she was stricken in 1944.
