Unfortunately not. The 'Sydney' was in action against 2 Zeppelins on may 4th 1917, off the coast of south east Scotland. HMAS Sydney fired at the Zeppelins, but ran out of ammunition before hitting either Zeppelin which were apparently flying about 14,000 feet. The shells simply couldn't get high enough and the Zeppelins rose rapidly each time they were fired on.

How did the HMAS Sydney sink?
It was sunk by a German ship in World War 2. The German ship was called the Kolomoran. The Kolomoran was disguised as a Dutch ship. The HMAS Sydney came closer to have a look. Too close. The Germans hoisted up a German flag, and the battle started. It was a short battle. The Germans fired two torpedoes. One missed and the other one hit the bow. It was all too much for the Sydney. The last sighting of her was her, chugging over the horizon, smoke billowing from her bow.

When was Sydney attacked?
During World War II, in May 1942, three Japanese submarines entered Sydney Harbour and attempted to bomb the Sydney Harbour Bridge. Their bombs completely missed the bridge, but did manage to hit the naval depot ship HMAS Kuttabul, which was a converted harbour ferry that was not being used by civilians. Nineteen Australian and two British sailors on the Kuttabul died.
