1 year ago Sorry. Not trying to be the smart alec here, there are just some inconsistencies on navypedia, in particular for the DTM and DSM landing craft which I'm trying to fix. The two other issues #2296 and #2297 aren't necessary. These two ships are the same DTK/DTM class but were built by Germany and Italy during WW2 and then refitted after Yugoslavia captured them. Also they didn't serve for very long. It's weird that navypedia starts a new class at DTM-221 because DTM-208 - DTK-238 were all the same class built by Yugoslavia while the older vessels were war trophies. I've chosen DTM-219 Golub because it's the longest serving DTM.
Tank Landing Ship / Minelayer name (first they were named DTK (tank landing craft), then DTM (tank landing craft - minelayer) after the mine rail refit: DTK-219 Golub [DTK/DTM] (DTK-201 - DTK-238), Yugoslavia (Navy), 1946, 35x (CWDB) - no mine rails DTM-219 Golub [DTK/DTM] (DTM-211 - DTM-237), Yugoslavia (Navy), 1968, refit, 28x/14x in 72 (CWDB) - mine rails + radar DTM-219 Golub [DTK/DTM] (DTM-211 - DTM-237), Yugoslavia (Navy), 1980, 14x/8x in 91 (DB3K) - mine rails, new radar, new weapons DTM-219 Golub [DTK/DTM] (DTM-211 - DTM-237), Croatia (Navy), 1991-2002, 1x (DB3K) - mine rails, new radar, new weapons
** comment; in case you are wondering why DTM-211 - 237, the older vessels were decommissioned, 238 was sold
