HMS Vittoria (1917)

HMS Vittoria was a British destroyer of the Admiralty V-class.

During Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War it was torpedoed by the Bolshevik submarine Pantera off the island of Seiskari in the Gulf of Finland on 31 August 1919.

[1] The sunken destroyer was given to the state of Finland on 12 December 1919 together with her sister ship Verulam; however, when salvaging began in 1925, it was found that both ships were broken in two and impossible to repair.

In November 2013, Russian divers rediscovered the wreck at a depth of 30 meters (98 feet), at a location inside what is now Russian territorial waters.
