Muavement

 


In 1915

Officers and enlisted men of the heroic Muavenet-i Milliye torpedo boat, which sank the British battleship H.M.S.Goliaht (13/05/1915) with a torpedo shot.


In 1992

TCG Muavement - 1992

Turkish warship shot down (1992) with 2 Seasparrow air defence missiles by American aircraft carrier Saratoga at Nato exercise "Display Determination-'92"

And not by accident ! Sea Sparrow missiles are semi-active guided missiles. In order to hit Muavenet, they must be aimed at the ship with the fire control radar. This feature of the system eliminates the possibility of the incident being accidental. It's obvious that there's a motive!

The ship commander, Chief of Naval Staff Lieutenant Colonel Kudret Güngör and 5 soldiers were martyred and 22 personnel were injured.
