Swedish Battle Ship?

[DiverDownDave]

Has anyone heard of a sunken Swedish battleship off the coast of Cyprus?

A friend said he heard about it on TV but I can't find any info.

Looks like the HMS Cricket is the only battleship in the area, but it's British not Swedish. However there is a Swedish wreck in Cyprus names the Zenobia, a ferry.

HMS Cricket-
Location: Larnaka Coast
Depth:33m
Visibility:10m to 25mSituated

Hope this helps!

It looks like Sweden only had two Navy vessels designated as battleships:

Thanks y'all - I knew Scubaboard would come through.
My friend must have mistaken the Zenobia for a battleship. I love wreck diving so perhaps a trip to dive both the Zenobia and the HMS Cricket is in order.
