Hi Larry.
Sorry it took so long to get back with you about
your question on whether any of Simon Lake's subs built for Russian saw combat
in WW1, but I was looking up
every Simon Lake website I could find trying to
find out if any of his subs built for Russia saw combat in WW1.
Finally I found a site that is hosted by his great
grandson Jeff Lake. Jeff told me none were used to his knowledge.
I include Jeff Lake's e mail to me
below.
Kindest Regards,
Bill Akins.

Subject: [PSUBS-MAILIST] Did any of Simon
Lake's Russian Submarines see combat?
Looking at the posting about the I 401 found on
Hawaii reminded me of something i have wondered about for years: Did any of
Simon lake's Russian Subs see combat in WWI? They might have been 10-12 years
old when WWI started but the British used their C class in WWI AIR
reading.
