USN:
Balao-class submarine USS Corporal (SS-346) underway for Key West, with a Sikorsky HSS-1 helicopter from VX-1 secured to the submarine's after deck

During naval exercises off Key West in April 1956, a US Navy Sikorsky H-34 helicopter, serial number 51, made an emergency landing on the Corporal's deck because it experienced serious mechanical problems during an anti-submarine warfare exercise in which the Corporal had been serving as the opposing force. After close cooperation by radio and hasty preparations by the submariners, the distressed helicopter managed to touch down safely aft of the submarine's sail. The incident marked "the first time a helicopter made an emergency landing on a submarine."

Italy:
Oriani-class destroyer Vincenzo Gioberti explodes after being torpedoed by Royal Navy submarine HMS Simoon on 9 August 1943

On 9 August 1943 Gioberti set sail from La Spezia, under the command of the frigate captain Carlo Zampari (on his first war mission), with the destroyers Mitragliere and Carabiniere, escorting the VIII Division (light cruisers Garibaldi and Duca d'Aosta) directed to Genoa. At 18:24 the formation was spotted off Punta Mesco by the British submarine HMS Simoom, which launched four torpedoes against the Garibaldi; it managed to avoid them with the maneuver but the Gioberti, who was behind the cruiser, performed a wrong maneuver (it increased its speed but remained on the same course) and, hit by two torpedoes, it broke in two pieces: the stern blew up, the bow continued for a few hundred meters before swerving to starboard and sinking in turn, about five miles by 210° from Punta Mesco. After the attack 171 survivors of Gioberti were recovered by some MAS (armed torpedo motorboats) and other units that left from La Spezia.

The real number of casualties including dead and missing is unknown but may have been up to 95.
