The Yugoslav monitor ''Drava'' was the name ship of the ''Enns''-class river monitors built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy. As SMS ''Enns'', she was part of the Danube Flotilla during World War I, and fought against the Serbian and Romanian armies from Belgrade to the lower Danube. In October 1915, she was covering an amphibious assault on Belgrade when she was holed below the waterline by a direct hit, and had to be towed to Budapest for repairs. After World War I she was provided to the newly created Kingdom of Serbs, Croats and Slovenes (later Yugoslavia), and renamed ''Drava''. During the German-led Axis invasion of Yugoslavia in April 1941, ''Drava'' spent six days shelling airfields near Mohács in Hungary and fought off a small flotilla of Hungarian gunboats. On 12 April, she was attacked by Junkers Ju 87 ''Stuka'' divebombers of the Luftwaffe. The anti-aircraft gunners on the ship claimed three enemy aircraft, but nine of the ''Stukas'' scored hits, most of which had little effect. Unfortunately for ''Drava'', the last bomb dropped straight down her funnel and exploded in her engine room, killing 54 of the crew, including her captain, Aleksandar Berić. Only thirteen of the crew survived. She was subsequently raised and scrapped by Hungary during their occupation of parts of Yugoslavia. Berić was posthumously awarded the Order of Karađorđe's Star for his sacrifice, and the base of the Serbian River Flotilla at Novi Sad is named after him. ==Description and construction== The name ship of the ''Enns''-class river monitors was built for the Austro-Hungarian Navy by Stabilimento Tecnico Triestino.
