Twenty-four 24 class sweeping sloops were planned for the Royal Navy near the very end of the war and in the years immediately following. Two were cancelled on 3 December, 1918 before completion. They were all named for racing horses and thus were sometimes called the Racehorse class.

Design & Construction

They featured a single funnel and mast and were designed to appear double-ended. Four of the vessels had the mast abaft the funnel, the others had the mast positioned ahead of the funnel.
