Russian Orfey-class Destroyer

The Orfey class was a Russian destroyer group developed within the wider Novik-derived expansion of the Imperial Navy. The ships’ turbine machinery, speed, and torpedo armament reflected prewar efforts to create more capable flotilla forces. Their careers crossed the political upheavals of revolution and civil war, with some surviving into Soviet service under changed names. Consequently, an imperial-era and a later Soviet appearance may differ. The class had no one uninterrupted wartime allegiance or one identical service fate for every ship. Naval renaming after the revolution can make apparently different ship names refer to one hull. Reliable identification requires tracing those changes rather than counting each name as an unrelated vessel.
