The Fairmile D motor torpedo boat was a type of British motor torpedo boat (MTB) and motor gunboat (MGB) designed by and conceived by Fairmile Marine for the Royal Navy. Nicknamed "Dog Boats", they were designed to combat the known advantages of the German E-boats over previous British coastal craft designs. They were bigger than earlier MTB or motor gunboat (MGB) designs (which were typically around 70 feet) but slower, at 30 knots compared to 40 knots.

  • Le torpilleur à moteur Fairmile type D était un type de torpilleur à moteur britannique (Motor Torpedo Boat, en abrégé MTB) et de canonnière à moteur (Motor Gun Boat ou MGB) conçu par Bill Holt et construit par pour la Royal Navy. Surnommés « Dog Boats », ces bateaux ont été conçus pour lutter contre les avantages connus des E-boote allemands par rapport aux conceptions précédentes d’embarcations côtières britanniques. Ils étaient plus grands que les modèles précédents de torpilleur à moteur ou de canonnière à moteur, qui étaient généralement longs d’environ 70 pieds (21,34 m), mais ils étaient plus lents, avec une vitesse maximale de 30 nœuds (55 km/h), contre 40 nœuds (74 km/h) pour les modèles précédents.

Soprannominate "Dog Boats", sono stati progettate per combattere i noti vantaggi delle E-boat tedesche rispetto alle precedenti progetti di imbarcazioni costiere britanniche. Le Fairmile D erano più grandi dei precedenti modelli di motosiluranti e motocannoniere che in genere erano di circa 70 piedi ma più lente, con una velocità di 30 nodi rispetto ai 40 nodi dei modelli precedenti. Tra il 1942 e il 1944 ne vennero varate ben 229 unità. (it)
