Hugh,
According to the book by Jacob Rehder, Die Verluste der Kriegsflotten 1914-1918 (as edited and updated by Helmut Sander), published by J F Lehmanns Verlag in 1969 (original apparently 35 years earlier): Jadighar-i-Millet is classed as DD, and noted as a Torpedo Boat Destroyer. It was built in 1909, with a displacement of 620 tons. It was lost of Oct 9, 1917 , near Constantinople, by bombs from British aircraft. The wreck was raised later (no date given). I have no idea why the discrepency between July 9 and Oct 9. I will have to check The War in the Air later.

Frank.
