HMS Tartar was a Tribal-class destroyer of the Royal Navy that saw service in most of the naval theatres of World War II. She had an eventful career, eventually receiving the nickname ''Lucky Tartar'' due to her numerous escapes from dangerous situations. She managed to survive the War, and was one of only four of the sixteen Tribal class destroyers that operated with the Royal Navy to do so.
