This is a series of bar graphs showing the Timeline of submarines of the United States Navy.
Notes
editThe submarines are primarily listed in order of hull number with the following exceptions:
- H–4 through H–9 (SS–147 to SS–152) are shown immediately after H–3 (SS–30).
- The four Gato–Class subs SS–361 to SS–364 are shown with the other Gato–Class subs immediately after SS–284.
- The three Seawolf–class submarines were kept in chronological order.
Pre-Holland (North America)
editNotes:
- A more complete list of early submarines can be found at List of pre-Holland submarines.
- These subs were not commissioned in the United States Navy but are shown for historical context.
- Robert Fulton was an American, and while his submarine, Nautilus was actually built in France, it is also included here for context.
- The first commissioned boat, USS Holland (SS-1) is included at the bottom to assist in visually matching the following timeline.

Number of in-commission subs by year
edit- Number for each year reflects count on 1 Jan of that year.
- Blue line represent all subs.
- Grey line represents only diesel powered subs. From 1991 to 2007 the only active diesel powered boat was the Dolphin research sub.
- Green line shows only nuclear powered subs.
- Number of commissioned subs peaked after WW-I in 1921 at 104.
- During WW-II the number peaked in 1945 at 237. The absolute maximum simultaneously in service may have been higher as there were at least 8 boats that were commissioned and lost in the same calendar year and are not counted in the Jan 1 totals.
- During the Cold War the number of subs peaked in 1968 at 171. Of those, 86 were continuously active or reactivated Gato, Balao and Tench class.
- As of 01 Jan 2017 the number of commissioned subs was 68.
