The 14-in Fiume Mark I Torpedo was an early torpedo manufactured by the Whitehead & Co..

By the end of 1884, the Royal Navy had purchased 225 of them as it sought to compare Whitehead-manufactured specimens with their domestically licensed weapons built at the Royal Laboratory.[1]

Mark I*

Some time before the end of 1884, 50 Mark Is had been altered to this standard and 49 more were under alteration at Fiume.[2]
