The 14-in R.L. Mark I Torpedo was an early British torpedo manufactured by the Royal Laboratory.

A total of 236 were manufactured between 1876 and 1880, at which time production was switching over to the Mark II torpedoes.[1]

Mark I*

115 of these were apparently made by altering Mark I torpedoes, some time before the end of 1884.[2]

Mark II*

34 of these were apparently made by altering Mark I or Mark I* torpedoes, some time before the end of 1884.[3]
