Two ships of the Royal Navy have been named HMS Capel:

  • HMS Capel (BDE-45) was launched in 1942 and allocated to the Royal Navy under Lend Lease, then reallocated to the US Navy in 1943 and renamed USS Andres (DE-45) as an Evarts-class destroyer escort
  • HMS Capel (K470) was laid down as the Evarts-class destroyer escort USS Wintle (DE-266), then transferred to the Royal Navy as the Captain-class frigate HMS Capel under Lend Lease in 1943.
