She was built at Compagnie Schneider et. Cie., Chalon/Saone, France for the Turkish Navy and was built in 1907 and completed in January 1908. She was a steam powered gunboat with her boilers generating 325 NHP for a speed of 13 knots. Armament consisted of 2 "Q" gun mounts with triple barrels and 2 machine gun mounts. The ship was sunk by gunfire on 07 January 1912 during the Italian-Turkish war at Konfida, Saudi Arabia by the Italian cruiser Piemonte and destroyer Artigliere.
