Hello. Some  time ago i posted topic concerning the naval warfare of partisans during ww2.

I wanted to make some questions concerning Yugoslavian and Croat naval actions during the 1991-1992.
Every contribution/reply is welcome in addition to link or pages who could explains a bit more.

Here the list of detailed questions:

1) Identity of Yugoslavian ships that sunk on 9-12 November 1991 (unclear exact day) the ferry "Adriatic" and the American-owned sailing ship "Pelagic" in Dubrovnik.
It is also possible ships were attacked by anti-tank missiles.

2) Identity of Yugoslavian ship that intercepted and sunk the Maltese-flagged ship "Euro River" manned by croats attempting to break the Dubrovnik blockade, nearby Solta Island.

3) Identification of Yugoslavian ships that caused minor damages to ferries "Bartol Kasic" and "Vladimir Nazor" during the Battle of Dalmatian Channels.
(possibly it was frigate Split of tactical group "Kastala").

4) Exact date when the Croat runabout "Sveti Vlaho" met a Yugoslavian patrol boat/gunboat causing her temporary grounding. Also identity of the Yugoslavian warship and general details of the engagement (There was a gunfight?).


5) Knowledge of other clashes/seizures or sinking occurred between 1991 and 1992

Unfortunately, all discussion of events pertaining to the Yugoslav Civil Wars (1991-1995) are strictly sanctioned by the Article 11 of the Forum Rules.

While there is a number of interesting military topics that could stem from the subject, they all inevitably devolve into a sh*tshow of ad hominems, without exception. Therefore, all such discussion is to be done through private messages. You could try PMing some of the more knowledgeable people. I can not help you unfortunately, I am more of a land forces kind of guy.  laugh

Hello and thank you for your reply! Yeah, I guessed it could be a big reason of issue, but I wanted stress only the purely interest in naval warfare avoid of political debate.

I will try to contact few, but will more likely hope some will contact me ^^ (even if one read this post after XX months, I will still likely on the internet lol).





I will adds few extra questions, so they are all gathered and easy to read:

5-2) Details and date about the rumored attack by Croat torpedo boat "Vukovar" against Yugoslavian frigate "Split".

6) Exact date (late1991?) and details of Yugoslavian landing boat "Ugor" damaged by anti-tank rocket fire. To my knowledge, no proper amphibious ship with such name should have existed. It was a converted vessel?

7) Exact date (unclear-1991?) of damage by mine inflicted to Yugoslavian minesweeper Gradats.
How croats laid mines? Some specific unit involved as minelayer?  Also what it was class of "Gradats"? (i know 2 ships with such name).

Cool Exact date (1991?) of sinking by mine of one Yugoslavian supply-boat. Identity of ship is unknown to me.
Obviously no knowledge about Croat minelayer unit.

9) Details about the loss of croat diving support boat BRM-42 sunk by mine on 28 January 1992.
BRM-42 was used as minesweeper at the time of sinking? And how the mine was laid? (minelayer unit etc...)

Dear @Lupodimare89, I am very glad to answer you, but I do not know anything about your questions, although I was an officer in Yugoslav Navy at this period... You know, it was very strange kind of war, everyone had his own unit, problems, we were living day by day and expecting some kind of solution of this strange situation... Also, we were worried about our families, because, actually our wives and children were living at enemy`s territory (my unit was located in Pula, northern Adriatic)...

We, retired naval officers have regularly monthly meetings here in Belgrade, so I will ask my friends if someone have some information of topics you asked about. If I find something, you will get information on PM.

Best regards! Boro

5-2) Details and date about the rumored attack by Croat torpedo boat "Vukovar" against Yugoslavian frigate "Split".
Torpedo boat "Vukovar" is Yugoslav navy torpedo boat "TC-222 PartizanII" build by licence from soviet union in Yugoslav shipyard NATO designation "Shershen", captured by Croatian terrorist in Sibenik shipyard during summer 1991. Operationaly never used , becaused the situation you described is happened in November 1991 , when this boat was out of use.


6) Exact date (late1991?) and details of Yugoslavian landing boat "Ugor" damaged by anti-tank rocket fire. To my knowledge, no proper amphibious ship with such name should have existed. It was a converted vessel?

PO-92 Ugor

7) Exact date (unclear-1991?) of damage by mine inflicted to Yugoslavian minesweeper Gradats.
How croats laid mines? Some specific unit involved as minelayer?  Also what it was class of "Gradats"? (i know 2 ships with such name).

Gradac was Jadrolinija ferry , usually keeping the line to the island of Hvar before the war , he laid mines in front of Lora naval harbour without any damage.

9) Details about the loss of croat diving support boat BRM-42 sunk by mine on 28 January 1992.
BRM-42 was used as minesweeper at the time of sinking? And how the mine was laid? (minelayer unit etc...)

BRM-42 sunk in begining of December 1991 , because they where demining mines from Gradac , why they said it happend in January , thats question for some other people. I personaly whitnes explosion.

Croatian terrorists captured mines in yugoslav people army naval storage depot in Seget-Vranjic close to the city of Trogir, when one officer betrayed his oath and let whole depot surrender to croatian terrorists.
