    There is a little issue with the Viribus Unitis sinking. This is my recall. There could be some imprecisation here and there but still:
    It was no a torpedo boat. The torpedo boat logged around a manned torpedo. The Manned Torpedo entered the Harbor with two saboteurs, Raffaele Rossetti (the same engineer that developed said manned torpedo) and Raffaele Paolucci, on board during the night. The two places a 200 Kg charge on the ship and were discovred and captured immediately after. This was around 4:40 AM. The sunk the manned torpedo that had another charge on board. This one later sunk a support ship when it exploded at around 6:45 AM.
    Now this I cant be sure that is true but the story make sense:
    Once under custody they discovered that the Battleship was no longer austrian as was the entire fleet. Basically the fleet was handed over when they were on their way to target so they had no way to know what was going on. So they warned the Crew of the charges and asked to abbandon ship. They said that the charges were to blow at 6:30. They didnt and the Crew of The Viribus Units resumed its stations. The Charge detonated around 15 minutes later taking the ship down with most of the crew that made it back, including the commander, Janko Vukovich. The two italian raiders managed to survive, probably due to them being better swimmer than most, and were liberated a few days later when the Italian Navy occupied Pola. The Two received a compensation of more than a Milion Lire as the law dictated.
    Later on they devolved part of the sum to the Family of Captain Vukovich that after the loss was in a precarious economic situation.

    4 years with the names the same again. Shelling on rivers of Belgrade, La Cateua, and the rest. Was it worth it? Of course not. But was the world better for the fall of the Kaiser, AH Empire, Russian Czarists, and Ottomans? Yes. Sadly winning the opportunity to shape a glorious future doesn't mean you will grasp the nettle.
