Kapal pemusnah TA43

+Beograd
TA43 ialah kapal utama kelas pemusnah, dibina untuk Tentera Laut Diraja Yugoslavia di Perancis pada akhir 1930-an, dan direka untuk digunakan sebagai sebahagian daripada [ [bahagian (laut)|divisyen]] diketuai oleh pemimpin flotila . Dia memasuki perkhidmatan pada April 1939, dipersenjatai dengan bateri utama empat  pistol dalam satu lekap, dan mempunyai kelajuan tertinggi .

Apabila Yugoslavia memasuki Perang Dunia Kedua disebabkan oleh Jerman yang dipimpin Paksi pencerobohan pada April 1941, dia telah dirosakkan oleh kejadian nyaris semasa serangan udara, dan kemudian ditangkap oleh Itali. Selepas memasang semula, dia melihat perkhidmatan yang meluas dengan Tentera Laut Diraja Itali dari Ogos 1941 hingga September 1943, menyelesaikan lebih 100 konvoi misi pengiring di Mediterranean di bawah nama Sebenico, terutamanya di laluan antara Itali dan Aegean dan Afrika Utara. Berikutan gencatan senjata Itali pada September 1943, dia telah ditangkap oleh Tentera Laut Jerman dan dinamakan semula TA43. Mereka meningkatkan persenjataannya anti-pesawat dan dia berkhidmat dengan Flotila Bot Torpedo ke-9 dalam tugas pengiring dan pemasangan ranjau di utara Adriatik. TA43 telah ditenggelamkan atau dilubangtenggelam di Trieste pada 30 April atau 1 Mei 1945. Dibesarkan pada Jun 1946, mungkin untuk membuangnya sebagai bahaya navigasi, dia telah diselongkar semula pada bulan Julai sama ada 1946 atau 1947.
Latar belakang
Pada awal 1930-an, Tentera Laut Diraja Yugoslavia (Kraljevska mornarica, atau KM) meneruskan konsep pemimpin flotilla, yang melibatkan pembinaan pemusnah besar yang serupa dengan Perang Dunia I British Tentera Laut Diraja pemusnah kelas V dan Ws. Dalam antara perang Tentera Laut Perancis, ini kapal bertujuan untuk beroperasi sebagai armada separuh daripada tiga kapal, atau dengan seorang ketua flotila beroperasi bersama beberapa kapal pemusnah yang lebih kecil. KM memutuskan untuk membina tiga ketua flotila sedemikian, kapal yang boleh mencapai kelajuan tinggi dan mempunyai ketahanan yang lama. Keperluan ketahanan mencerminkan rancangan Yugoslavia untuk mengerahkan kapal ke Mediterranean tengah, di mana mereka akan dapat bekerjasama dengan kapal perang Perancis dan British. Ini mengakibatkan pembinaan pemusnah  pada tahun 1930–1931. Tidak lama selepas dia diarahkan, bermulanya Kemelesetan Hebat bermakna hanya satu kapal daripada separuh flotila yang dirancang telah dibina. Walaupun tiga kapal pemusnah besar tidak akan dibina, niat bahawa Dubrovnik mungkin beroperasi dengan beberapa pemusnah yang lebih kecil berterusan. Pada tahun 1934, KM memutuskan untuk memperoleh tiga kapal pemusnah yang lebih kecil untuk beroperasi dalam divisyen yang diketuai oleh Dubrovnik.
Penerangan dan pembinaan 
Kelas Beograd dibangunkan daripada reka bentuk Perancis, dan nama kapal kelas itu, Beograd, dibina oleh Ateliers et Chantiers de la Loire di Nantes, Perancis. Kapal itu mempunyai panjang , rasuk , dan drauf . anjakan standard ialah , meningkat kepada  pada muatan penuh. Anak-anak kapal terdiri daripada 145 pegawai dan lelaki yang disenaraikan. Kapal itu dikuasakan oleh turbin stim Curtis yang memacu dua bebaling, menggunakan stim yang dijana oleh tiga dandang tiub air Yarrow. Turbinnya diberi nilai antara  dan dia direka untuk mencapai kelajuan tertinggi , walaupun dia hanya mampu mencapai kelajuan tertinggi praktikal  dalam perkhidmatan.
 Dia membawa   minyak bahan api, yang memberikannya jarak 1,000 batu nautika .

Service history
Yugoslavia
Less than a month after being commissioned, Beograd was sent to the United Kingdom with a large part of Yugoslavia's gold reserve, 7,344 ingots, to be lodged with the Bank of England for safekeeping. At the time Yugoslavia entered World War II as a result of the German-led Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941, Beograd and her sister ships were allocated to the 1st Torpedo Division at the Bay of Kotor. To prevent a bridgehead being established at Zara, an Italian enclave on the Dalmatian coast, Beograd, four 250t-class torpedo boats and six motor torpedo boats were dispatched to the port of Šibenik,  to the south of Zara, in preparation for an attack. The attack was to be coordinated with the 12th Infantry Division Jadranska and two combined regiments of the Royal Yugoslav Army attacking from the Benkovac area, supported by the Royal Yugoslav Air Force's 81st Bomber Group. The Yugoslavs launched their attack on 9 April, but the naval prong of the attack faltered when Beograds starboard engine was put out of action after a series of near misses from Italian aircraft off Šibenik. The destroyer then limped to the Bay of Kotor for repairs, escorted by the remainder of the force. She was captured there by Italian forces on 17 April.

Italy
In Italian service, Beograd was refitted and repaired. A new director was fitted on her bridge and  L/65 Breda Model 35 guns were added to her armament. She was commissioned in the Royal Italian Navy () under the name Sebenico in August 1941, and served as a convoy escort on routes between Italy and the Aegean and North Africa, completing more than 100 missions over a two-year period. On 18 October 1941, off the Italian island of Lampedusa, the British submarine HMS Ursula sank a steamer that was under escort by a force that included Sebenico. On 29 March 1942, Sebenico and three torpedo boats were escorting a convoy off Brindisi when the British submarine HMS Proteus sank one of the escorted freighters. She retained her searchlight amidships and her aft director until at least mid-1942. According to the naval historian M.J.Whitley, it is likely that her aft torpedo tubes were removed towards the end of her time in Italian hands in order to make space for additional anti-aircraft armament, but the details of what weapons may have been fitted are not known.

Germany
When the Italians capitulated in September 1943, the German Navy () seized Sebenico in the port of Venice on 9 September and renamed her  TA43 ( 43). The term Ausland and prefix TA were used to denote that she was a captured vessel put into German service. At the time of her capture she was either damaged or had been made unserviceable by her crew. While in German service her anti-aircraft armament was improved using space provided by removing one of the triple torpedo mounts. She was fitted with seven  guns in one double-mount and five single-mounts, as well as two single-mount  guns. In February 1945 she was allocated to the 9th Torpedo Boat Flotilla, which consisted entirely of captured destroyers and torpedo boats. She was used for escort work and on minelaying duties in the northern Adriatic. As late as 1 April 1945, TA43 was still in commission and available to fight, although she saw little action.

Naval history sources differ on her final fate. According to Roger Chesneau, she was sunk at the port of Trieste by Yugoslav People's Army artillery fire on 30 April 1945, and was raised in June 1946, probably to remove her as a navigation hazard, and she was scuttled a month later. David Brown records that she was scuttled at Trieste on 1 May 1945. Maurizio Brescia states she was scuttled by the Germans at Trieste on 1 May 1945 and was broken up in 1947.
