The Seventh Destroyer Flotilla was a formation of destroyers of the Royal Navy.

History

In November 1912, seven destroyers were to be given Destroyer W/T Sets, part of an initiative to equip 26 destroyers in three patrol flotillas.[1]

In 1916, it was comprised of assorted old torpedo boats and River class destroyers. The T.B.s ran 37 18-in cold torpedoes that year, endangering the enemy 84% of the time, the "Rivers" were 97% likely to endanger the enemy with their 45 18-in Mark VII runs.[2]

November, 1911

The flotilla in the Mediterranean was comprised of:[3]

April, 1912

The Royal Navy's flotillas 1–8 were reorganised this month, leaving 7 D.F. as one of four patrol flotillas provided with nucleus crews only. Her strength is now twenty-four old T.B.Ds. and a cruiser based on Devonport.[4][5]

Nine destroyers have also joined: Bat, Fairy, Flying Fish and Osprey from the Grand Fleet, and Express, Ostrich, Peterel and Vigilant from the Firth of Forth Local Defence Flotilla. Legion and Doon have rejoined and Ferret has joined the reduced flotilla, recently of the First Destroyer Flotilla. The formation is now twenty-two destroyers and a flotilla cruiser.[46][47][48]

Ostrich has left to become, oddly, the sole destroyer under Captain-in-Charge, Lowestoft, to help him keep three small vessels and a monitor in order. The formation's strength is thirty-five destroyers and a flotilla cruiser.[54][55]

The flotilla has been joined by the Twentieth Destroyer Flotilla and has lost its flotilla cruiser Patrol, which has gone to be a convoy leader in the Methil Convoy Flotilla out of the Firth of Forth. The minelaying destroyers have all gone to the Twentieth, with Legion and Sandfly paying off in so doing. Crane and Fawn have joined from the Sixth Destroyer Flotilla of the Dover Patrol and recently attached destroyers Exe and Fairy have rejoined. The formation's strength is twenty-one destroyers.[64][65]

Kale was lost to a mine on 27 March.[66]

April, 1918

Exe has paid off. Kale has been dropped, owing to her recent loss; she has been replaced by Greyhound from the Sixth Destroyer Flotilla. The formation's strength is twenty-one destroyers.[67][68]

Finally, the persistently large size of this formation warrants the arrival of a Captain (D) in the yacht Oriflamme. Exe remains paid off, but Dee and Waveney no longer seem to be. Mermaid has joined from the Sixth Destroyer Flotilla. The formation's strength is now twenty-six destroyers and a yacht.[73][74]

November, 1918

Greyhound remains paid off, but Doon and Waveney no longer are marked as being so, which seems suspicious, as they will again be in the coming month. Dee is marked as "detached", though she is still listed as a member. The formation's strength is still twenty-six destroyers and a yacht.[77]

March, 1919

The formation as it was is essentially disbanded and a new Seventh Flotilla for the post-war navy is crafted from a pair of leaders and 16 ultra-modern destroyers. The formation's strength is now two flotilla leaders, sixteen destroyers and a depot ship due "shortly" (as also was Serapis).[83]
