Valkyrie — British Tier III destroyer.
The V-class leaders actually determined the arrangement of the classic destroyer of the first half of the 20th century. The ships carried their main battery grouped at the ends as per the linearly elevated scheme, but they were much smaller than other destroyer leaders of the time. Immediately after commissioning, Valkyrie was assigned to the 10th flotilla of the Harwich Forces. In 1917, Valkyrie struck a mine and sustained severe damage. After undergoing repairs, the ship became part of the 13th Destroyer Flotilla and took part in operations in the Baltic during the British intervention in Soviet Russia.
