		Depth charges had to explode within about 20 feet (6.1 metres) of a submarine to breach its hull, and in the initial stages of the war the British depth charges' maximum setting was over 100 feet (30 metres) shallower than the maximum depth that a U-boat could dive to.
		To protect the fleet from mines provision for a two speed destroyer sweep (TSDS) was fitted to all but HMS Jervis, who as the flotilla leader had increased accommodation for staff which reduced the space available at the stern of the vessel.
		The J class was the first to have only a single funnel, with improvements in boiler design allowing the ships to be fitted with two more powerful boilers rather than the three fitted to the previous Tribal class destroyers, with the net power output being similar.
