Russian Pierce-Arrow-Izhorsky Naval Armored Car. Captured by the Germans in the Moon Island, Gulf of Riga, Baltic Sea, October 17, 1917.
This Russian Pierce-Arrow Izhorsky Naval Armored Car was captured by the Germans in the Moon Island in October 17, 1917, during the Battle of Moon Sound, as part of the Albion Operation (*).
Partially destroyed, it was rebuilt and sent to Berlin, where it was used in 1918 by the German revolutionary sailors. Later it fell into the hands of the Freikorps.
(*)- “The Germans were supported by artillery fire, which destroyed a house and a Russian armoured car near the base of the dam on Moon, however, the burning house only served to illuminate the dam and expose the German infantry”.
