Career

Minotaur was commissioned at Devonport on 1 April, 1908, by Captain William O. Boothby, for service in the Fifth Cruiser Squadron.[2]

Alterations

An order for a design for a director system for Minotaur was issued on 22 February 1915 and orders for its supply made 12 April, 1916. Priorities for director fittings were such, however that it was only installed in August 1918.[3]
