Fate of the SMS Inn

[edit]

According to Romania in World War I#1917 campaign and armistice


>On 22 September, Romania achieved its greatest naval success of the war, when the Austro-Hungarian river monitor SMS Inn struck a Romanian mine and sank near Brăila, the explosion killing the chief of staff of the Austro-Hungarian Danube Flotilla and a telegraphist and wounding 8 more sailors.

With the sources:

  1. Raymond Stănescu, Cristian Crăciunoiu, Marina română în primul război mondial, p. 215 (in Romanian)
  2. ^ Angus Konstam, Gunboats of World War I, p. 29
  3. ^ René Greger, Austro-Hungarian Warships of World War I, p. 142
  4. ^ Mark Axworthy, Cornel I. Scafeș, Cristian Crăciunoiu, Third Axis, Fourth Ally: Romanian Armed Forces in the European War, 1941-1945, p. 327

Unfortunately I don't have access to those sources to verify the fact, but it seems that the SMS Inn sank 22 September 1917 Driscoll42 (talk) 15:31, 15 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
