Whilst not strong enough to oppose the full High Seas Fleet, the Swedish fleet would have been quite capable of holding its own against those units of the German fleet which were permanently stationed on the Baltic, even with the occasional addition of individual ships from the main fleet. Against the Russian fleet, particularly after 1917, the Swedes had every reason to feel confident, although they lacked any fast striking force with which to exploit any temporary advantage. The dates for each vessel quoted above are provisional as variations of up to a year appear in various sources. The armament for Swedish Destroyers appears to have varied, with 6pdr guns being replaced by 12pdr guns, both the Ragnar Class and the Hugin class apparently ending up with 4 x 12pdr.
