Wartime history
Capture and fate
Like many other torpedoboats, those six ships were first given to Italy and taken over by the Kriegsmarine in April 1943, transferred from La Spezia to Toulon. It soon became clear, that the ships were in a very bad condition, ammunition, personnel shortages and their lack of offensive capabilities made it impossible to use them as torpedo boats. Therefore all ships were used as escort vessels and operated in the 3. and 4. escort division. TA11 (former SG46, F.R.43 (ital.), L'Iphigénie (fr)) was badly damaged during a night battle with Italian fast attack boats on 09.09.1943 and sunk after artillery hits from Italian tanks the day after.
