The Surcouf was a submarine cruiser of the French Navy, commissioned in 1934. Designed to be a "surface submarine" capable of extended cruising missions, it was equipped with a 203 mm gun, similar to those found on light cruisers of the time, as well as torpedoes and the ability to carry a seaplane. The Surcouf was intended to be a versatile predator, capable of destroying both surface targets and enemy submarines. However, the submarine was lost under mysterious circumstances in 1942, during World War II, leaving behind a fascinating and controversial legend.
