Hellcat on the catapult

A TBM-3 Avenger from Torpedo Squadron Eighty-Two (VT-82), flying from USS Bennington (CV-20), in flight in the South Pacific area. The aircraft was damaged when the plane flying above it in formation was hit by anti-aircraft fire and fell on top of it.

The Life caption sayd Italian submarine, that's why it kept my attention, but clearly it is a US one and not Italian. Perhaps Salmon class? Can you identify it?
Nice pic in my opinion. DVX
