Barbarigo (pennant number BO) was launched 12 June 1938.[2] After unsuccessful patrols in the Mediterranean, Barbarigo sailed on 13 August 1940 and passed the Strait of Gibraltar for an Atlantic patrol to Bordeaux on 8 September. After unsuccessful BETASOM patrols from 14 October to 13 November 1940 and from 10 February to 8 March 1941, Barbarigo damaged the British freighter Manchester Port on 15 May 1941. Barbarigo sank two ships on its fourth BETASOM patrol. After an unsuccessful patrol from 22 October to 12 November 1941, Barbarigo sank the neutral Spanish freighter Navemar on 23 January 1942. Barbarigo sank one ship and damaged another during its seventh BETASOM patrol. Following an encounter with cruisers USS Omaha and USS Milwaukee coming to assist the damaged ship, Captain Grossi notoriously asserted he had sunk a battleship of the United States Navy. On the following patrol, a similarly unsuccessful launch of torpedoes at Flower class corvette HMS Petunia was reported as the sinking of another battleship. Barbarigo sank two Allied ships and another neutral Spanish freighter Monte Igueldo on its 9th BETASOM patrol.[9] After conversion to a transport submarine, Barbarigo sailed from Bordeaux on 17 June 1943 and was sunk by aircraft in the Bay of Biscay. |

nic w tym ciekawego, choć z własnych informacji wiem, że został zatopiony podczas misji transportowej do Japoni w Zatoce Biskajskiej. |

At approximately 23:40 on 23 June, Ed Whitlock, the radar operator in Lieutenant Commander Jesse D. Taylor's Avenger, detected a surface contact on his malfunctioning radar (only the right half of its sweep was working). Taylor immediately dropped flares, illuminating the area, and attacked. After his first pass, he saw the depth charge explosions just to starboard of the submarine — a near miss — and the submarine diving. Taylor dropped a purple sonobuoy, a newly-developed device that floated, picked up underwater noise, and transmitted it back. A searching aircraft usually dropped these in packs of five, named purple, orange, blue, red and yellow (POBRY); the operator was able to monitor each buoy in turn to listen for sounds emitted by its target. |

Ten okręt to SS-218 czyli USS Albacore. A zatopiony okręt, o który pyta tes to japoński lotniskowiec Taiho. Według źródeł w mojej biblioteczce, jednostka ta była rekordzistą US Navy w zakresie tonażu zatopionych okrętów wojennych wroga. |
