HMS Sportsman was a third-batch S-class submarine built for the Royal Navy during World War II. Completed in 1942, she spent most of the war serving in the Mediterranean Sea. After an initial patrol off Norway, she sank the heavy transport Général Bonaparte in the Mediterranean in 1943 and missed a French oil tanker. She was heavily damaged after a mistaken attack by an Allied bomber, and was sent east after repairs to participate in operations in the Black Sea. After the operation was cancelled, Sportsman patrolled the Aegean Sea, sending several Greek and German ships to the bottom. She sank the German transport SS Petrella in early 1944 despite it being clearly marked as a prisoner-of-war ship, killing 2,670 out of 3,173 Italians aboard. Sportsman sank several more ships, and suffered m

Sportsman sank several more ships, and suffered minor damage when she was detected and sighted while attempting to attack a convoy. After a refit in the United States, she returned to the United Kingdom where she participated in additional training for operations in the Far East. The deployment was cancelled when the war in the Pacific ended in 1945, and Sportsman was placed in reserve at Harwich. She was transferred in July 1952 to the French Navy, which renamed her Sibylle. The boat was lost with all hands in a diving accident off Toulon on 24 September. (en)
  • Le HMS Sportsman (Pennant number : P229) est un sous-marin britannique de classe S du troisième lot, construit pour la Royal Navy pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Il faisait partie des unités construites entre 1941 et 1944 par les Britanniques pour des opérations offensives. Terminé en 1942, il a passé la majeure partie de la guerre en service en mer Méditerranée, après une première patrouille au large de la Norvège. En 1943, il coule en Méditerranée le transport lourd Général Bonaparte, et rate un pétrolier français. Lourdement endommagé après avoir été attaqué par erreur par un bombardier allié, il subit des réparations puis il est envoyé à l’Est pour participer aux opérations en mer Noire. Après l’annulation de l’opération, le HMS Sportsman a patrouillé en mer Égée, envoyant par le fond plusieurs navires grecs et allemands. Au début de 1944, il a coulé le transport allemand SS Petrella, bien que ce navire soit clairement marqué comme un transport de prisonniers de guerre, tuant 2670 Italiens sur les 3173 qui étaient à bord. Le HMS Sportsman a coulé plusieurs autres navires. Il subit des dommages mineurs lorsqu’il a été détecté et repéré alors qu’il tentait d’attaquer un convoi. Après un carénage aux États-Unis, le HMS Sportsman est rentré au Royaume-Uni où il a participé à un entraînement supplémentaire pour des opérations en Extrême-Orient. Ce déploiement fut annulé quand la guerre du Pacifique prit fin en 1945, et le HMS Sportsman fut placé en réserve à Harwich. En juillet 1951, le bâtiment est transféré à la Marine française, qui le rebaptise Sibylle. Le 24 septembre 1952, le sous-marin est perdu corps et biens dans un accident de plongée au large de Toulon. (fr)
