The first ships that the independent Finnish Navy obtained were a mix of obsolete vessels left behind by the Russians during the Finnish Civil War and vessels that had not been able to make the winter voyage to Kronstadt as the Russian Navy retreated from German forces. Thus, the Finnish Navy of the late 1910s and early 1920s consisted of a few gunboats ("Klas Horn", "Matti Kurki", "Turunmaa", and "Karjala"), six "S"-class torpedo boats, eight "C"-class torpedo boats, one minelayer ("Louhi"), several minesweepers, and five "T"-class minelaying boats. In addition to the warships, the Russians also left behind numerous other types of vessels.
