Armo 700-21 98 M - Austro-Hungarian Torpedoboat, 1915

The Tb 98 M was an Austro-Hungarian, and later a Greek, seagoing torpedo boat from World War I, the interwar period and World War II. The keel was laid for this unit in March 1914, it was launched in November 1914, and it was commissioned in 1915. The full displacement of the ship at the time of launching was about 300 tons, its length - 60.4 meters, and width - 5.6 meters. The maximum speed of the vessel did not exceed 30-31 knots. The ship's deck armament at the time of launching consisted of: 2 66 mm guns or 4 450 mm torpedo tubes.

The Tb 98 M was one of the three torpedo boats belonging to the type with the same name. The ships of this class were designed for offshore operations, but the characteristics of the finished units predestined them primarily for coastal operations. They had a high top speed and generally proved to be rather successful units. The Tb 98 M - like the other ships of this class - was built at the Monfalcone shipyard. The torpedo boat actively and successfully participated in World War I, operating in the Adriatic, stumbling over Italian torpedo boats in 1916-1917. In 1920, the unit was handed over to Greece and changed its name to "Kyzikos". In 1926 it underwent renovation, and on April 28, 1941 it was sunk by its own crew.
