French submarine Amphitrite (1914)

The Amphitrite was a French Navy Amphitrite-class coastal defense submarine built during World War I. Launched in 1914, she served in the Mediterranean Sea during the war. These submarines were designed to operate close to the coast and harbors, providing a defensive screen against enemy naval forces. Specific details about the Amphitrite's operational history, actions, and eventual fate are not widely available in easily accessible public records. However, as part of the Amphitrite-class, she contributed to the French naval war effort during a period of intense submarine warfare in the Mediterranean. The Amphitrite-class boats were relatively small and slow compared to ocean-going submarines, but they were considered valuable assets for patrolling coastal areas and protecting ports.
