Temes-class monitor

The Temes class consisted of two river monitors built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy that saw service during World War I. A notable member was Bodrog (later the Yugoslav monitor Sava).

They were armed with two 120 mm (4.7 in)L/35 guns in single gun turrets, a single 120 mm (4.7 in)L/10 howitzer in a central pivot mount, and two 37 mm (1.5 in) guns. The maximum range of the Škoda 120 mm guns was 10 kilometres (6.2 mi), and the howitzer could fire its 20 kg (44 lb) shells a maximum of 6.2 km (3.9 mi). The armour consisted of belt, bulkheads and gun turrets 40 mm (1.6 in) thick, and deck armour 25 mm (0.98 in) thick. The armour on the conning tower was 75 mm (3.0 in) thick. The gun turrets also had armour 75 mm (3.0 in) thick.
