Design and Construction
- four QF 5.2-in Mark I guns in two unarmoured turrets, 100 rounds per gun
- six 21-in torpedo tubes forward
Service
Construction was overseen by Robert Henry Taunton Raikes, who was appointed to the vessel on 11 December, 1922[2].
She paid off on 23 January, 1924, which seems odd, as she had not yet been commissioned; perhaps 1926 was intended.[3]
On 29 January, 1925, Philip Esmonde Phillips was appointed, to assume command when the vessel finally commissioned later that year.[4][5]
Reduced to one-third crew on 9 February, 1931.[6]
