During WWII the Finnish navy operated five small submarines, all designed in the Netherlands (by a Dutch front company) and built in Finland. Between them they sank one Soviet merchant ship and three Soviet submarines. All Finnish subs survived the war.

How many finnish submarines participated in the battle of the Atlantic how many allied ships did they destroy?

The Finns were not at war with Britain, America, France, or any of the Allies other than the Soviet Union - they saw their war with the Soviets as a continuation of the Winter War of 1939. Thus, Finnish subs were limited to Soviet targets.The Iku-Turso is believed to have sunk a single Soviet Shchuka-class submarine. The Soviets disputed this claim. The Vesihiisi sunk a single Soviet S-class submarine (S7). The Vesikko is claimed to have sunk a single Soviet merchant ship (the Vyborg), although the Soviet Union claimed it to have been sunk by a German onslaught. The Vetehinen sank a single Soviet Shchuka-class submarine by ramming it.The Finns had five submarines which served during WWII. Their impact on the war - either WWII as a whole, or the Continuation War - could be seen as relatively insignificant.The Finnish subs were also used to deploy mines, although there is no confirmation as to whether or not any of these mines had any effect.
