Three Banshee class destroyers served with the Royal Navy. They were all built by Laird, displaced 290 tons and were armed with one twelve pounder and two torpedo tubes. They carried a complement of 53 officers and men. HMS Dragon (1894), HMS Banshee (1894) and HMS Contest (1894) were all disposed of shortly before World War I.
