Arabis Class (1915) SL | 
    |
| The 36 
	ships of the Arabis Class were the third sub-group of
	Flower Class (1915) 
	minesweepers to be constructed under the Emergency War Construction 
	Programme.
       They were ordered in July-1915 in three batches. (An additional 8 ships were constructed by British yards for the French Navy.) All had triple hulled bows which gave extra protection while sweeping. All were launched between late 1915 and May-1916.
