ATA 126 Aviso ARA
"Yamana" of the Argentine Navy. Bought in late 40 worked for
hydrological service, fleet tug and harbour tug until paid off in 1985.
Finally used as target for an AM-39 Exxocet missile. Note: She
actually survived the impact. (she was modified to do so) and a few hours
later after a damage check, she was struck by a SST-4 guided torpedo
launched from a TR-1700 submarine which destroyed the ship. (circa Unknown) (Submitted by
