Submarine K6 one of K class steam-propelled submarines of the Royal Navy designed in 1913. Intended as large, fast vessels that would operate with the battle fleet, they gained notoriety, and the nickname of Kalamity class, for being involved in many accidents. Of the 18 built none were lost through enemy action but 6 sank in accidents. Only one ever engaged an enemy vessel, hitting a U-boat amidships though the torpedo failed to explode. Circa 1914
