HMS Vox

HMS Vox

Two submarines of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS "Vox", after the Latin for Voice:

*HMS "Vox" (P67), a British U class submarine launched in 1943, that upon completion was transferred to the Free French Navy as the French submarine "Curie". She was returned to the Royal Navy in 1946, and scrapped in 1949.
*HMS "Vox" (P73) - a British V class submarine launched in 1943, that replaced the first "Vox" until she returned to RN service. This "Vox" was then scrapped in 1946.
