With twenty-nine units completed, the T.B. 26 Class Torpedo Boats from Thornycroft were the Royal Navy's largest single stripe of first-class torpedo boats.

They were refinements of lessons learned in T.B. 25.

Armament

A single bow-mounted tube for 14-in Whitehead torpedoes. Later, their tube and spare torpedo were replaced with dropping gear for two torpedoes.[1]

The boat mounted no gun.
