Best Answer

The same terms would apply as for a group of surface ships. So you could refer to a submarine fleet, although that term describes the largest group available (so you could refer to the 'US submarine fleet' as all the subs America operates).

For a mid-sized group, you could use 'flotilla', or for a few boats the word 'squadron' is sometimes used.

(Note that in naval use these terms will have specific meanings, but for colloquial use amongst civilians they should be fine.)
