JJ Colledge's book describes naval drifters as falling into two distinct and precisely definable classes. I think this article would be much improved if we spun it out into two separate articles about the classes.

- Why not first expand this article with the information on both, and where there is sufficient info, then split if warranted per
WP:SUMMARY
- in the meantime, both can redirect here. This article is incredibly incomplete and short as it is, lets first add some meat to the bone before splitting the roast?;)--

- I agree there is not currently enough information here to split this article. But I have not found reliable sources easy to come by. So that will be splendid Cerejota if you can expand the article. Although there were two types of drifters specifically built for the navy, both these types were essentially the same, except one was built from steel and the other from wood. There was also a third type ? requisitioned fishing drifters which were converted for naval use during the war. Thus, if the article were to be split, it would need to be split three ways. And unless Cerejota can find a lot more information, then I don't think that is a good idea. --
