French ship Scipion (1798)
''Scipion'' was a 74-gun French ship of the line, built at Lorient to a design by Jacques Noel Sane. She was launched as ''Orient'' in late 1798, and renamed ''Scipion'' in 1801. She was first commissioned in 1802 and joined the French Mediterranean fleet based at Toulon, in the squadron of Admiral Leissègues. Consequently she was one of the ships afloat in that port when war with England reopened in May 1803.〔Goodwin (1805), p.195〕 She participated in the Battle of Cape Finisterre and the Battle of Trafalgar. The British captured her in the subsequent Battle of Cape Ortegal. In 1810 she participated in the Java campaign, which in 1847 earned her surviving crew the Naval General Service Medal. She participated in the blockade of Toulon in 1813 and was paid off in 1814. She was broken up in 1819.
==French Navy service==
In 1805, she was part of Admiral Villeneuve's fleet. She took part in the Battle of Cape Finisterre and was one of Rear-Admiral Pierre Dumanoir le Pelley's ships at the Battle of Trafalgar.
Dumanoir commanded the six-ship vanguard of the French fleet, with ''Formidable'', ''Scipion'', ''Duguay-Trouin'', ''Mont-Blanc'', ''Intrépide'' and ''Neptune''. Nelson's attacks left these ships downwind of the main confrontation and Dumanoir did not immediately obey Villeneuve's orders to return to the battle. When the ships did turn back, most of them only exchanged a few shots before retiring.
On 4 November 1805, in the Battle of Cape Ortegal, Admiral Sir Richard Strachan, with , , , and four frigates, defeated and captured what remained of the squadron. and took ''Scipion'', which the Royal Navy commissioned as HMS ''Scipion''.
