History
The Italian torpedo boat (originally classified as destroyer) was in a quite bad shape when captured by the Kriegsmarine in September 1943. TA35
(former Giuseppe Dezza
) was commisioned on 09.06.1944 since it was scuttled by its Italian crew and had to be repaired first. Also part of the 2nd Escort Flotilla, the boat sunk after a mine hit on 17.08.1944.
