This article is about a dinky little torpedo boat that served in two wars under four different flags, and ended its career during a run-in with some British motor torpedo boats in the Adriatic in 1944. It is the fourth one of its class to come to FAC (in addition to the class article), so hopefully I have ironed out most of the kinks by now. It is part of a Good Topic that I'm gradually moving towards a Featured Topic. I think I've hoovered up everything available on its career, including in Serbo-Croat, in terms of its comprehensiveness. Especially looking for prose improvements that could be made. Thanks to all who take a look. Peacemaker67 ( click to talk to me) 06:47, 1 January 2019 (UTC)
What we've here, our first FAC in 2019. Wow! Great start! Let's see how I can help you PM.
Hopefully this was useful. Again great start. Cheers. CPA-5 ( talk) 14:53, 3 January 2019 (UTC)

Prose looks pretty clean. I've copyedited a little; please revert if necessary. Some minor comments:
They were the first small Austro-Hungarian Navy boats to use turbines, and this contributed to ongoing problems with them: any details available?
Transferred in March 1921,[8] in KJRM service, 96 F was renamed T7isn't very fluent. Can we change "she served with" in the previous sentence to "she was transferred in March 1921 to"? That's assuming the other three F-group boats transferred that month too. Then it could be "Renamed T7 in KJRM service, she and the other... were, at the outset, the only...".
February–October 2009is in green, not red. I think the idea is that the range is February to October, and 2009 is an attributive of the whole range. Mike Christie ( talk - contribs - library) 23:20, 30 January 2019 (UTC)
her three former F-group sisters: why "former"? You use "all four F-group boats" without qualification later in the paragraph.
...were then captured by the Italians. T7 was then operated by the Italians...: repetition of "then".

Support. There's a debatable MOSDASH issue outstanding, and a suggestion for an improved map; neither is worth holding up support for.
