H.M. T.B. 21 (1884)
Builder: Thornycroft[1]
Launched: 1884[2]
Sold: 1907[3]
H.M. T.B. 21 was one of four first-class torpedo boats of the 113 Footer class.

Around 1906-1907, with the issuance of torpedo boat numbers to the first of the Cricket class torpedo boats, the existing Torpedo Boats numbered 25 to 79 had a "0" prepended to their number. This vessel, therefore, became T.B. 021.[4]

Service

During the crisis following the Panjdeh Incident in 1885, T.B. 21 was put into commission as part of Admiral Phipps Hornby's Particular Service Squadron on 28 April, and was later involved in the year's Annual Manoeuvres at Berehaven.[5]

In 1886, she was in the Mediterranean.[6]

In 1895, she was one of ten first-class T.B.s stationed in Malta.[7]
