English: The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Howorth (DD-592) being sunk by submarine torpedoes off San Clemente Island, California (USA), on 8 March 1962. The small landing craft astern was designed to move the ship to present the submarine with a moving target. This view shows the first hit taking place, under the No.1 127 mm gun mount. The torpedos were fired by Submarine Flotilla 1 (COMSUBFLOT 1). |
