Project history

Torpedo boats, as a whole were considered rather successful (with reference to Adriactic Sea theatre) ships. III series ships instead of steam engines were equipped with turbines, but have appeared more expensive and less reliable.

Modernizations

None.

Naval service

No significant events.
