Operation Armour was a British operation launched by the South East Asia Command during World War II.

The operation was carried out during August and September 1945 and aimed to supply Hong Kong, then occupied by the soon-to-surrender Japan and on the edge of starvation, with fresh troops, food and supplies. The SEAC arranged rice and food convoys from Burma, India, Thailand and Australia.
