HMS Arab (1874)
HMS ''Arab'' was an composite gunvessel built for the Royal Navy in 1874. She served in the East Indies and was sold in 1889.
==Design and construction==
Designed by Nathaniel Barnaby, the Royal Navy's Chief Constructor, ''Arab'' was ordered from the Govan yard of Robert Napier & Sons in 1873 and laid down the same year as yard number 333. She was launched on 13 October 1874〔 and commissioned at Devonport in August 1875.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=HMS ''Arab'' at the Naval Database )〕
Her hull was built of iron frames and ribs, and planked in wood.〔 This "composite" construction was both cheap and easy to repair and allowed the wooden planking to be coppered, reducing marine growth. On far-flung colonial stations, the benefits of both simple repair and reduced marine growth were particularly positive, due to a lack of substantial ship repair and careening facilities. For this reason, smaller vessels like the ''Arab'' class continued to use composite construction until long after larger vessels had transitioned to iron or steel construction.
