During the tests official of Havoc, that here reached the speed of 26,78 knots, establishing new world records. Their armament included/understood a gun of 12 delivers S behind a shield on before boat and three torpedo tubes, two side and one of stem. Thereafter, they were modified by the disassembling of the tube power station, because considering the speed of the ship, it was likely to catch up with the torpedo and in addition the ship was reduced. Thanks to 57 tons of coal, to bring closer to its 240 tons of displacement, Havoc was remarkably enduring for ships of their size, thus enabling them to follow a fleet in its displacements. They served all their career in the Home Fleet in British Isles.
