The Salmon class were two destroyers built by Earle's to an Admiralty specification for service with the Royal Navy. The specification called for a torpedo boat destroyer capable of 27 knots; the builders were largely free to design as necessary. A total of 42 ships would be provided by various shipbuilders. In May 1912 they were sold for breaking up. In 1913 all surviving similar vessels built to the same requirement were reclassified as the A class torpedo boat destroyers

  • The Salmon class were two destroyers built by Earle's to an Admiralty specification for service with the Royal Navy. The specification called for a torpedo boat destroyer capable of 27 knots; the builders were largely free to design as necessary. A total of 42 ships would be provided by various shipbuilders. HMS Salmon and HMS Snapper were launched in 1895. They displaced 305 tons, were 200 feet long and their Yarrow boilers produced 3,600 hp which gave them the intended top speed of 27 knots. They were armed with one 12 pounder gun and two torpedo tubes. They carried a complement of 53 officers and men. In May 1912 they were sold for breaking up. In 1913 all surviving similar vessels built to the same requirement were reclassified as the A class torpedo boat destroyers
