HMS SUCCESS, (destroyer), was laid down at Doxford’s Yard, Sunderland, England. She was launched on 27 January 1920, and shortly afterwards was among a number of vessels gifted to the RAN. She became HMAS SUCCESS, (although at one stage the RAN considered changing her name to Rabaul), and served in the RAN until mid 1931, when due to the financial constraints of the Great Depression she was placed in reserve.
