Design
Like all Amphion-class submarines, Alcide had a displacement of Script error: No such module "convert". when at the surface and Script error: No such module "convert". while submerged. She had a total length of Script error: No such module "convert"., a beam of Script error: No such module "convert"., and a draught of Script error: No such module "convert".. The submarine was powered by two Admiralty ML eight-cylinder diesel engines generating a power of Script error: No such module "convert". each. She also contained four electric motors each producing Script error: No such module "convert". that drove two shafts.[2] She could carry a maximum of Script error: No such module "convert". of diesel, although she usually carried between Script error: No such module "convert"..[2]
The submarine had a maximum surface speed of Script error: No such module "convert". and a submerged speed of Script error: No such module "convert"..[3] When submerged, she could operate at Script error: No such module "convert". for Script error: No such module "convert". or at Script error: No such module "convert". for Script error: No such module "convert".. When surfaced, she was able to travel Script error: No such module "convert". at Script error: No such module "convert". or Script error: No such module "convert". at Script error: No such module "convert"..[2] She was fitted with ten Script error: No such module "convert". torpedo tubes, one QF 4 inch naval gun Mk XXIII, one Oerlikon 20 mm cannon, and a .303 British Vickers machine gun.
