HMAS Torrens, sunk as a target by HMAS Farncomb, in June 1999 using a Mark 48 torpedo.

I quote pictures for a reason, it makes it harder for people to jist go back to the page the picture was taken from.

Sorry, it's an actual amphibious hovercraft, therefore elegible to be a question.

I always get the pictures from one site, so it shouldn't be too hard, just look through the craft in their collection...

Correct! Not too hard, was it? Next time I'll post a less dubious hovercraft!

Seems a bit silly to destroy one of your own ships. MUCH easier to start a war with another country and use THEIR ships for target practice.
