There may have been a dozen or so battles like that but how many actually had major battleship on battleship action with one or more being sunk?  I'm not counting Mers-el-Kebir.  Sinking a boat in harbor is cheating.

Tsushima

Jutland 

Denmark Strait

North Cape

2nd Guadalcanal 

Surigao Strait

In some of those, the fatal shots were from other ships or subs.  

Normally, you gotta pay extra for that kind of action.

From Yahoo News:

The United Kingdom is no longer sharing intelligence with the US about suspected drug trafficking vessels in the Caribbean because it does not want to be complicit in US military strikes and believes the attacks are illegal, sources familiar with the matter told CNN.

The UK’s decision marks a significant break from its closest ally and intelligence sharing partner and underscores the growing skepticism over the legality of the US military’s campaign around Latin America.

For years, the UK, which controls a number of territories in the Caribbean where it bases intelligence assets, has helped the US locate vessels suspected of carrying drugs so that the US Coast Guard could interdict them, the sources said. That meant the ships would be stopped, boarded, its crew detained, and drugs seized.
