Three Handy-class destroyers served with the Royal Navy. Шаблон:HMS, Шаблон:HMS and Шаблон:HMS were all built by Fairfield.

Design and construction

As part of the 1893–1894 Naval Estimates, the British Admiralty placed orders for 36 torpedo-boat destroyers, all to be capable of Шаблон:Convert, as a follow-on to the six prototype "26-knotters" ordered in the previous 1892–1893 Estimates. Of the 36 destroyers, three ships (Handy, Hart and Hunter) were ordered from Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company of Govan,[1] the first torpedo craft to be built by that shipyard.[2] As typical for torpedo craft at the time, the Admiralty left detailed design to the builders, laying down only broad requirements.[3][4]

Fairfield's design was Шаблон:Convert long overall and Шаблон:Convert between perpendiculars, with a beam of Шаблон:Convert and a draught of Шаблон:Convert. Displacement was Шаблон:Convert light and Шаблон:Convert full load,[2] while the ship's complement was 53 officers and men.[5] Three Thornycroft boilers fed steam at Шаблон:Convert to two 3-cylinder triple expansion steam engines rated at Шаблон:Convert and driving two propeller shafts.[2] Two funnels were fitted.[6] Armament consisted of a single QF 12 pounder 12 cwt[lower-alpha 1] gun and three 6-pounder guns, with two 18 inch (450 mm) torpedo tubes.[7] As a gunboat, one of the torpedo tubes could be removed to accommodate a further two six-pounders.[8][9][lower-alpha 2]

In September 1913 the Admiralty re-classed all the surviving 27-knotter destroyers as A Class, although this only applied to Handy herself as the other two ships had already been sold for scrap in 1912.
