They were powered by two Brown-Curtis geared steam turbines, each driving one propeller shaft, using steam provided by two Yarrow boilers. The turbines developed a total of {{convert|27000|shp|lk=in}} and gave a maximum speed of {{convert|36|kn|lk=in}}. The ships carried a maximum of {{convert|301|LT|t}} of fuel oil that gave them a range of {{convert|2750|nmi|lk=in}} at {{convert|15|kn}}.

The ship was fitted with two twin mounts for {{convert|21|in|adj=on|0}} torpedoes.[2] Two additional single mounts were positioned abreast the bridge at the break of the forecastle for 18-inch (45 cm) torpedoes. All torpedo tubes were above water and traversed to fire.[4]Construction and careerSeafire was ordered as part of the second batch of the S class and was built by John Brown & Company, Clydebank and launched on 10 August 1918.[1] She saw service during the Allied intervention in the Russian Civil War.
