Submarine H. L. Hunley replica

Submarine H. L. Hunley replica


Charleston, South Carolina (SC), US
A replica of the Hunley is on display outside the Charleston Museum.

H. L. Hunley was a submarine of the Confederate States Navy that demonstrated both the advantages and the dangers of undersea warfare. Hunley was the first submarine to sink a warship, though the sub was also lost following the engagement. Though some know the submarine by the name CSS H. L. Hunley, she was not commissioned and therefore does not warrant the "CSS" prefix.
