Three ships of the Royal Navy and Royal Indian Navy have borne the name HMS Sutlej, after the Sutlej, a river that flows through modern day India and Pakistan:

  • HMS Sutlej was a 50-gun fourth rate launched in 1855, but converted to screw propulsion and undocked in 1860. She was broken up in 1869.
  • HMS Sutlej was a Cressy class armoured cruiser launched in 1899 and sold in 1921. She was scrapped in 1924.
  • HMIS Sutlej was a Black Swan class sloop launched in 1940. She was used as a survey ship from 1955 and was paid off in 1978. She was deleted from the navy lists in 1982/3 and was broken up.
