''Ambuscade'' was one of three ''Acasta''-class destroyers ordered from John Brown & Company of Clydebank as part of the 1911–1912 shipbuilding programme for the Royal Navy. In all, 20 ''Acasta''-class ships were ordered as part of this programme, of which 12, including ''Ambuscade'', were to the standard Admiralty design with the other 8 ships to their builder's own designs.〔Friedman 2009, pp. 126–127.〕 She was laid down, as Yard Number 411, on 7 March 1912 and launched on 25 January 1913.〔Friedman 2009, p. 207.〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.clydesite.co.uk/clydebuilt/viewship.asp?id=2300 )〕 In 1912, as part of a general reorganisation of the Royal Navy's destroyers into alphabetical classes, the ''Acasta''s became the K-class,〔Gardiner and Gray 1985, p. 18.〕 and in 1913, it was decided to switch to names beginning with the class letter, with ''Ambuscade'' being allocated the name ''Keith'', but this plan was abandoned for the class and ''Ambuscade'' completed under her original name in June 1913.〔Gardiner and Gray 1985, p. 75.〕〔Friedman 2009, pp. 306–307.〕

The ship's main gun armament consisted of three 4-inch (102 mm) BL Mk VIII guns, with 120 rounds of ammunition carried per gun.〔〔 Two 21-inch (533 mm) torpedo tubes were fitted, while two reload torpedoes could be carried.〔〔Friedman 2009, p. 124.〕 The ship was fitted with a 2-pounder "pom-pom" anti-aircraft autocannon during the First World War, while in 1918 the torpedo tubes (and possibly one of the 4-inch guns) was removed to allow a heavy depth charge armament to be carried.〔Friedman 2009, pp. 124, 152.〕
