贝库纳号 (SS/AGSS-319),一艘巴拉奥级潜艇,是美国海军的前舰艇,以欧洲的一条类似派克的鱼贝库纳号命名。她因在第二次世界大战中服役而被指定为国家历史地标,为此她赢得了四颗战星。她目前在宾夕法尼亚州费城的独立海港博物馆担任博物馆馆长。

The Deep-Diving Fleet Submarine

贝库纳号Balao-class submarine, the most successful class of American submarines in World War II. Launched in 1944, the Becuna was a “fleet submarine,” designed to travel with the main battle fleet across the vast Pacific. Unlike the earlier Gato-class, the Balao-class utilized high-tensile steel (HTS), allowing it to dive to depths of 400 feet (120m), significantly safer from Japanese depth charges.

Attribute Technical Specification (WWII Configuration)
Balao-class Diesel-Electric Submarine
船员 10 Officers, 70-72 Enlisted
主要武器装备 10 × 21-inch (533 mm) Torpedo Tubes (6 forward, 4 aft)
Deck Gun 1 × 5-inch / 25 caliber dual-purpose gun
动力装置 4 × Fairbanks-Morse Diesel Engines; 4 × Elliott Electric Motors
Surface Speed 20.25 knots (37.5 km/h)
Submerged Speed 8.75 knots (16 km/h)
Test Depth 400 feet (122 m)

The GUPPY Modernization

  • Streamlining the Hull: In 1951, the Becuna underwent a GUPPY IA (Greater Underwater Propulsive Power) conversion. This removed the deck guns and replaced the bulky WWII bridge with a streamlined “sail” to reduce underwater drag.
  • Snorkel System: The conversion added a “snorkel” (inspired by German technology), which allowed the submarine to run its diesel engines and recharge batteries while submerged at periscope depth.
  • Battery Upgrades: The internal “Sargo” batteries were replaced with much larger, high-capacity battery banks, nearly doubling the boat’s submerged endurance and speed.
  • Sonar Evolution: Her radar and sonar systems were upgraded throughout the 1950s and 60s, transitioning her from a surface-running raider to a true underwater Cold War interceptor.

Service and Preservation

  • WWII Combat: During her five war patrols, the Becuna was credited with sinking several Japanese merchant ships and tankers, totaling thousands of tons, earning two battle stars.
  • Cold War Role: Post-GUPPY, she operated primarily in the Atlantic and Mediterranean, tracking Soviet naval movements and participating in NATO exercises until her decommissioning in 1969.
  • Museum Ship: Today, the Becuna is a National Historic Landmark. She is preserved at the Independence Seaport Museum in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, where she is moored alongside the Spanish-American War cruiser USS Olympia.
