HMS Inglefield (D02)
HMS ''Inglefield'' was an leader built for the Royal Navy that served during World War II. She was the navy's last purpose-built flotilla leader. She was named after the 19th century Admiral Sir Edward Augustus Inglefield (1820-1894), and is so far the only warship to carry the name of that seafaring family. In May 1940, her pennant number was changed to I02.

On the outbreak of war, ''Inglefield'' was deployed as the leader of the 3rd Destroyer Flotilla, Mediterranean Fleet, and was based at Malta. However, she was transferred to the Home Fleet before the end of September 1939 to patrol the Western Approaches. In this rôle, she escorted HM aircraft carrier , but was answering a distress signal from SS ''Kafirstan'' when ''Courageous'' was attacked and sunk. ''Inglefield'' searched in vain for the U-boat that sank the ''Courageous''. One month later, ''Inglefield'', along with her sister-ships and , sunk U-boat off the southwest coast of Ireland. She again came under attack from German U-boats when fired numerous torpedoes at her; they all missed. A few days after that last attack, she was required to tow the submarine back to Stavanger, after she was damaged while on patrol in the North Sea. She sank another German U-boat, , in early 1940 with the help of and ; 24 Germans were rescued.
