The Foca-class were a group of three submarines built for the Italian Navy between 1936 and 1938, intended primarily for mine-laying operations. The lead ship Foca was lost on October 1940 while laying mines in the Haifa harbor. Atropo and Zoea, the second and third ships of the class, were used after Italy's 1943 surrender by the Allies for supply runs to British garrisons in Samos and Leros in the Aegean. Both were scrapped in 1947
