There was considerable variation between the design and construction of ships within this class, which should be considered as more of a post-build grouping than a homogeneous class.No class of ships were called J class.

The I-class served in World War II and six were lost, with a seventh ship being written off. Design The I-class was a repeat of the preceding H class, except that they had ten torpedo tubes (two banks of five) instead of eight. They incorporated the new bridge and wheelhouse layout as tested in and (except the flotilla leader ''Inglefield''). ''Inglefield'' also had a larger tripod foremast, her sisters having pole masts.
