Submarine Depot Ship HMS Medway sinking, June 1942 after being torpedoed by U-372.

Medway was the first purpose-built British submarine depot ship, intended to support a brood of submarines with supplies, weapons, technical support and accommodation when in port.
In June 1942 with the situation in North Africa getting desperate Medway was evacuated from Alexandria, sailing for Beirut via Haifa but being torpedoed in an audacious shallow attack by U-372 en route. The sinking cost the British an extremely valuable ship and about half her cargo of 90 torpedoes went down with her, with the others floating to be recovered by the escorts. More positively, calm seas, the escorts and a mass of flotsam from the wreck ensured that only 18 of her 1,123 crew were lost.

USSR:
RN Westland Lynx near a Kresta-II class cruiser

"I have been seeing this in my parents/our house for some considerable time and was surprised to see it on this site (Reddit) as it was taken in around 1985.

The Lynx in question is being flown by my Father who was indeed "about 35ft from the ship" and was pondering how much radiation he had exposed himself to from the radars whilst doing so... He was based off HMS Newcastle and was north of Norway taking some pictures of Russian ships as part of a cold war operation.

As part of that operation, there were a number of photographers on board to help process the images that were being taken by people (including the one on the Lynx at the time) and this picture was taken by one of those "extra" photographers. The story is that one of them had popped out onto the bridge to take a break and noticed the lynx flying close to the ship; to the side of the photographer was the ships official photographer, who wasn't particularly interested, so the other photographer grabbed the camera off of them and proceeded to take this picture. This picture went onto receive the Photo of the Year award from the Navy (not sure of the actual name)."

Imperial Japan:
Protected cruiser Takasago

On returning to station on the night of 13 December 1904 after a reconnaissance mission during which it provided cover for a squadron of destroyers, Takasago struck a naval mine 37 nautical miles (69 km; 43 mi) south of Port Arthur, which triggered a massive explosion in her ammunition magazine. The flooding could not be controlled, and her life boats could not be launched at night under blizzard conditions and heavy seas. Takasago sank in position 38°10′N 121°15′ECoordinates: 38°10′N 121°15′E, with the loss of 273 officers and crew. Some 162 survivors were rescued by the accompanying cruiser Otowa.
