Lede
 * Per Manual of Style/Lead section, the lede of this article adequately defines the submarine, establishes the submarine's necessary context, and explains why the submarine is otherwise notable.
 * The info box for the submarine is beautifully formatted and its content is sourced within the prose of the text and by the referenced cited therein.
 * It's a pity there is no free image of the Osvetnik in the info box, but this is not a deal breaker for GA.
 * The lede could stand to include more information from the Description subsection, such as mentioning her partial double hull design.
 * The lede is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no other comments or questions for this section.

History Description
 * It should be mentioned in this section that Osvetnik means Nemesis in the Serbian language. (Or is Osvetnik a word from another one of the Yugoslav kingdom's languages?)
 * This subsection is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no other comments or questions for this subsection.

Construction
 * Should Maschinenfabrik be spelled out either in parentheses after "MAN" or with "MAN" in parentheses after Maschinenfabrik?
 * Osvetnik should be mentioned at least once in this subsection, rather than exclusively referring to her as "she."
 * This subsection is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no other comments or questions for this subsection.

Career and fate
 * I suggest adding the accent for "attaché" in the first paragraph.
 * It should be mentioned briefly with either the first or second mention of the Bay of Kotor that it is a bay of the Adriatic Sea to provide greater geographical context.
 * In the last sentence, I suggest adding a comma after "On 14 September 1943."
 * There should be a wiki-link to Scuttling in the prose for those readers not familiar with this act of deliberately sinking a ship.
 * This subsection is otherwise well-written, consists of content that is adequately sourced and verifiable, and I have no other comments or questions for this subsection.

Thanks very much for the detailed review, West Virginian! I have been unable to locate a free image, but will keep looking. Otherwise, all your points have been addressed. My edit are here. Regards, Peacemaker67 (crack... thump) 00:43, 26 April 2015 (UTC)
