HMS Ouse (1905)
HMS ''Ouse'' was a Laird type River-class destroyer ordered by the Royal Navy under the 1903 – 1904 Naval Estimates. Named after the River Ouse in north east England near the city of York, she was the first ship to carry this name in the Royal Navy.
==Construction==
She was laid down on 22 March 1904 at the Cammell Laird shipyard at Birkenhead and launched on 7 January 1905. She was completed in September 1905.〔Chesneau and Kolesnik 1979, p. 100.〕 As built, ''Ouse''s armament was the same as the turtleback destroyers that preceded the ''Rivers'', i.e. a gun armament of a single 12-pounder gun and five 6-pounder guns, and two 18-in torpedo tubes. Unlike some of the early ''River''-class destroyers, ''Ouse''s forward two six-pounders were mounted on the forecastle along with the 12-pounder, rather than on sponsons projecting over the ship's sides, which kept them out of spray and made them easier to operate.〔Manning 1961, p. 49.〕〔Friedman 2009, pp. 89, 91.〕 In 1906, as a result of Japanese experience during the Russo-Japanese War, the Admiralty decided to upgrade the armament of the ''Rivers'' by replacing the five 6-pounder naval guns with three lightweight 12-pounder 8 hundredweight (cwt) guns. Two would be mounted abeam at the foc'sle break and the third gun would be mounted on the quarterdeck. The class was refitted with the new armament during 1908.〔〔Friedman 2009, pp. 96–97.〕
