The six T.B. 82 Class Torpedo Boats were Yarrow built, displacing 85 tons on a length of 130 feet.
They were similar to T.B. 79 but had a turtle back forecastle. They proved too light in construction, and required strengthening.
Armament
A single (bow-mounted?) tube for 14-in Whitehead torpedoes and two 1-in twin barrelled Nordenfelds. By 1900, they may have been rearmed with two 14-in torpedoes in dropping gear and 0.45-in, 5-barrelled Nordenfelds.[1]
