Faulknor-class flotilla leader

The ''Faulknor'' class were a class of flotilla leaders that were under construction in the United Kingdom for the Chilean Navy at the outbreak of World War I. These ships were purchased by the British, taken over and completed for the Royal Navy for wartime service. In common with Royal Navy convention, they were named after famous Royal Navy captains of the past, in this case the members of the Faulknor family.
==Design==
The six s were a private design by J. Samuel White that were significantly larger and heavier armed than their contemporaries. They had four funnels, a tall, narrow fore funnel and three broad, short funnels behind. They were initially armed with six single QF 4-inch guns, unusually arranged with four on the forecastle - two sided in front of the wheelhouse and two sided abreast it - the remaining pair being sided on the quarterdeck. These guns were of a novel Elswick design for the Chileans and when the ships were rearmed they were replaced with standard Royal Navy models. As rearmed in 1918 they carried a BL 4.7-inch gun on the forecastle and another on a bandstand between the after pair of funnels, retained the pair of guns abreast the wheelhouse and had two QF 2-pounder pom-poms.
The four ships taken over by the Royal Navy were returned to the friendly nation of Chile in 1920, at which point the Thornycroft type leader ''Rooke'' was renamed ''Broke'' to maintain this famous name (that of Admiral Sir Philip Bowes Vere Broke of the ''Shannon'') in the Navy List.
