When was the navy that was donated the LKL "Kursis" (M51) by Germany established?
Lithuanian Naval Force The Lithuanian Navy is the naval arm of the Lithuanian Armed Forces. Though formally established on 1 August 1935 its roots stretch back as far as naval engagements on the Baltic Sea in the Medieval period. Lithuanian naval units saw some service with Soviet naval forces during World War II, and the navy has been re-established in its own right and continues to expand since Lithuania's independence in 1990.
Henschel Hs 294 The Henschel Hs 294 was a guided air-to-sea missile developed by Germany during World War II, in 1943. It was a further development of the Henschel Hs 293, but was of an elongated, more streamlined shape. When launched from an aircraft, it was guided to its target with the same "Kehl-Straßburg" remote control system as both the Hs 293 and unpowered Fritz X armored PGM systems used for their MCLOS guidance needs. Just before it reached its target, it was guided into the water, whereupon its wings would break off, then it then would run like a torpedo, propelled by its remaining kinetic energy; it would explode below the water line of the vessel. The proximity fuze was that of a regular German torpedo.
