The first Allied and Royal Australian Navy submarine lost in World War I has finally been found after a 103-year search off the coast of Papua New Guinea.
The sub was part of the Australian Naval and Military Expeditionary Force which was raised to capture German Territory in the Pacific and was successful in gaining one of the first allied victories of WW1.
