History
After the invasion of Norway, four other old Norwegian torpedo boats that were fallen in German hands were the ones of the 1899 design. Because of their old age, they were only used for secondary duties in the German Navy.
The Hauk
was under repair in Horten when captured. Commissioned as Krokodil
it also returned to Norway in 1945 and was scrapped in 1947.
