A wreck identified as the HMS Tiger is found at the bottom of the English Channel, about 118 years after the First World War-era ship sank. The Daily Mail reports the 400-tonne warship was cut in half during the incident, leaving the remains on the seabed.
The accounts tie the sinking to events in April 1908, when HMS Tiger takes part in a night exercise. The ship is said to have taken the wrong turn and entered the path of the much larger British cruiser HMS Berwick, described as a 10,000-ton vessel. Because the sources provided are limited, details such as the exact discovery location, method of identification, and any findings from the search are not included here. Overall, the published information emphasizes the timing of the exercise and the scale difference between the two ships, along with the reported nature of the damage.
While all sources agree on the core incident—night exercise, wrong turn, collision with HMS Berwick, and the wreck being found—the limited reporting makes it unclear what new evidence is used to confirm the identity and whether any additional conclusions are drawn beyond the location of the remains.
