According to the author of the note accepted the German navy still not the large ocean type torpedo boats. With a displacement of 564 tons were the German boats 600-700 tons smaller as the British torpedo boat of the budget year 1913. Dimensions 82,3 x 6,9 x 3,2 metres. Yet the German type was much effective as her British opponent. The armament was not changed with 2-8,8cm L/30 guns, one aft and one on the poop. Due to the rotating 2x2-50cm torpedo guns were these torpedo boats able to fire 4 torpedoes at one side at the same time. Four naval boilers and 23.000 hp turbine machinery delivered a contracted speed of 32,5 miles. The turbines were comparable in strength with the ones placed in the small cruiser Augsburg. Some torpedo boats even achieved during their trail a speed of 37 miles on the measured mile! Coal bunker capacity 180 ton and fuel oil bunker capacity 30 ton. Range 320 (maximum speed)-900 (cruising) nautical miles. Two screws. The crew numbered 73 men including 3 navy officers. All 12 torpedo boats were to enter service in 1913.
