| Picture No | 10635957 |
| Date | 1914 |
| Description | H.M.S. Swift |
| Details |
Launched in 1907, the Swift was a unique large Royal Navy destroyer. Her high cost and lack of hoped for high speed meant that no other similar ships were constructed before 1914. Surviving the war, the Swift was sold to be broken up in late 1921.
