	Submarine tender - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Submarines are relatively small compared to most oceangoing vessels, and generally do not have the ability to carry large amounts of food, fuel, torpedoes, and other supplies, nor to carry a full array of maintenance equipment and personnel.
		With the increased size and automation of modern submarines, plus their reliance on nuclear power, tenders are no longer as necessary as they once were.
		In the United States Navy, submarine tenders are considered auxiliaries, with hull classification symbol "AS".

	Submarine - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Submarines at periscope depth in clear water during the daytime are more easily detectable by aircraft that are directly overhead.
		Submarines did not have a major impact on the outcome of the war, but did portend their coming importance to naval warfare and increased interest in their use in naval warfare.
		Submarines are popular subjects for films due to the danger, drama and claustrophobia of being on a submarine, and the suspense of the cat-and-mouse game of submarine or anti-submarine warfare.

		Tenders were crucial to the ultimate success of World War II's Pacific submarine campaign because of the vast distances that characterized the theater.
		Moreover, tenders are manned - particularly at senior levels - with very experienced personnel, and their cumulative expertise is invaluable to the boats that come alongside for repair and refit services.
		During their first decade, the Navy's de facto submarine tenders were treated primarily as accommodation ships, and as often as not, these early auxiliaries were anointed as "tenders" simply by being ordered to become one.

	TenderTale - Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		Because of the early submarine's inherent limitations on range, slow speed and very limited capacity to store food, fuel, weapons and other provisions - a class of support ship was developed to serve as seagoing operating bases to allow submarines to operate where needed - being repaired, refitted and re-supplied near their advanced operating areas.
		However for the first 95+ years of U. Navy Submarine operations - the role of mother ship - providing repairs, refueling, resupply, medical and dental services - all of the logistics needed to operate submarines where they were most needed - was filled by the Tenders - and the Tender's crew.
		In 1903, she was assigned to support the earliest U.S. Submarines operating in Long Island Sound and thus became the Navy's first submarine tender.
