*British, Post WW2, HMS Tabard – Original Photograph and Large Brass Model of Triton Class Submarine On Wooden Base*

An unnamed brass model of a Submarine, likely Triton Class. Accompanied by an original photograph of HMS Tabard, a British T-class submarine. This photograph originally formed part of the Lou Britton British Submarine Collection, which was acquired by the Royal Navy Submarine Museum, Gosport in 2007. HMS Tabard was a T-class submarine, of the third group, of the Royal Navy, launched on 21 November 1945 by Scotts Shipbuilding in Greenock. She was the only vessel in the Royal Navy to bear the name, referencing the herald's garment. Post-war, Tabard underwent modifications to test streamlined designs inspired by the German Type XXIII submarine. These upgrades included a lengthened hull, improved propulsion, and streamlined fittings.

Approximate Measurements:
Wooden Base: 33.2cm x 6cm x 1.5cm
Brass Model: 28.8cm x 3.5cm x 5.2cm tall
Photograph: 25cm x 17.3cm

The T-class submarines, designed in the 1930s, were the Royal Navy’s standard ocean patrol submarines. Of 53 built, they were active in the North Sea, Mediterranean, and Far East, despite limited opportunities to disrupt German shipping early in the war due to heavily mined waters and scarce targets.

About HMS Tabard:
Commissioned after World War II, Tabard initially served in the Mediterranean, participating in major exercises and diplomatic missions. In 1960, she joined the 4th Submarine Squadron in Australia, collaborating with British, Australian, and New Zealand naval units. She underwent refits at Cockatoo Island Dockyard and continued operations, including anti-submarine training and exercises.

Tabard was involved in several collisions, including incidents with HMAS Queenborough in 1963 and docking damage in Brisbane. Notably, she participated in exercises with HMAS Melbourne and HMAS Voyager just before the tragic Voyager Incident in 1964.

Following her return to the UK in 1968, Tabard served as a static training submarine at HMS Dolphin until her decommissioning in 1974. She was the last T-class submarine in Royal Navy service, covering over 253,000 miles during her career. Tabard was sold for scrap in early 1974. Her periscope is preserved at the Fremantle War Memorial in Australia.

*Condition*
