USS Manta (SS-299)

USS Manta (SS-299) belonged to the Balao-class, the most numerous class of submarine built for the U.S. Navy during the war. With over 120 boats constructed, the Balao design represented the mature, combat-proven fleet submarine that carried the fight to Japan in the final years of the conflict. The USS Manta collection is crafted for those who know the real weight of submarine service. Whether you served aboard her, knew someone who did, or simply respect the history, this gear carries the heritage of the American submarine force.
