H.M.S. Hardy (1895)
Builder: William Doxford & Sons[1]
Ordered: 1893-94
Laid down: 4 Jun, 1894[2]
Launched: 16 Dec, 1895[3]
Commissioned: Aug, 1896[4]
Broken up: 1911[5]

H.M.S. Hardy was one of thirty-six 27 Knotters, early Torpedo Boat Destroyers built for the Royal Navy in the 1890s.

Her size, speed and condition rendered her outmoded before the war, and she was broken up in 1911.

Construction & Service

She and sixteen other destroyers of the Reserve Division arrived at Sheerness on 13 July 1905 and proceeded to Chatham.[6]

She was one of twenty-seven T.B.Ds. of the Portsmouth Flotilla to participate in the Annual Manoeuvres of 1909.[7]
