HMS Hardy was a Hardy-class destroyer which served with the Royal Navy. She was built by William Doxford & Sons in 1895, launched on 16 December 1895, and sold off on 11 July 1911.
She saw early service in home waters. In 1901 she was with the Mediterranean Squadron, but was relieved by the destroyer HMS Mallard in late May the following year. She arrived at Plymouth on 5 July 1902, and paid off at Chatham later the same month. Lieutenant Robert G. D. Dewar was appointed in command during summer 1902.
