The Royal Navy's China Station was an important base for projecting power into the Pacific.

On 1 November, 1911, the destroyers allotted to the "China Flotilla" were 3 "Rivers", four 30-knotters, and two 27-knotters.[1]

It was named the Eastern Fleet from 1941 to 1944, the Pacific Fleet from 1944 to 1946 and then the Far Eastern Fleet from 1946 to 1971.[2]
