The Ruggiero Settimo was a submarine of the Royal Navy that operated during the Second World War.
From 11 September 1933 to 4 April 1934 it carried out - together with its twin Luigi Settembrini - a long voyage in the Red Sea with departure and arrival in Taranto , calling at Tobruk, Port Said, Massawa, Aden, Assab, Massawa again, Ismailia, Port Said again and then Alexandria in Egypt; the cruise demonstrated that the performance of the Settembrini class submarines could be considered quite satisfactory. It clandestinely took part in the Spanish war by operating in the Aegean Sea, without achieving any results. After Italy entered the war on 10 June 1940, the 13 of the same month (under the command of Lieutenant Giovanni Cantù) was the protagonist of a clash on the surface with an unidentified enemy submarine: the two units launched some torpedoes at each other, none of which hit, and moved away without completing the combat.
On 12 July, while he was near Capo Passero, he was the target of a bomb attack by a British Short Sunderland seaplane, which caused him light damage.
At 10.22pm on 10 January 1941 (the commander of the submarine was Lieutenant Commander Mario Spano), during the Excess operation, sighted two light cruisers of the British 7th Division and attacked them with the launch of two torpedoes from 1,400 metres, then moved away submerged: an explosion was felt, but no there are confirmations of damage. In July 1941 he was sent between Pantelleria and Malta to counter Operation Substance, but he did not sight any enemy ships. He was also used on supply transport missions for Libya, carrying out 7 missions of this type; during one of these, returning from Derna, he unsuccessfully launched two torpedoes against some enemy destroyers. Overall he carried out 28 war missions.
