The Sava (P 802) was a submarine of the Yugoslav Navy . She was under the name Nautilo for the Italian Navy as the eighth unit of the first series of the Flutto-class were built. In order to make it more difficult for the Germans to take possession of it after the armistice of Cassibile , Nautilo was scuttled in the port of Venice on September 9, 1943 . She was lifted and put into service as UIT 19 by the German Navy and sank in Pula as a result of an air raid by the British Royal Air Force . After the Second World War it was lifted again, repaired and put into service as Sava by the Yugoslav Navy in 1949 . In addition to Tara (P 801) (ex Nebojša) , she became the second submarine of the Federal People's Republic of Yugoslavia. From 1958 on, Sava was only used for training purposes and it was followed by a longer period of lay in the shipyard from 1958 to 1960 during which the deck gun was removed and the turret cladding made more streamlined. Then she continued to serve in the training assignment until 1967.
