HMS Encounter was an E-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy in the early 1930s. Although assigned to the Home Fleet upon completion, the ship was attached to the Mediterranean Fleet in 1935–36 during the Abyssinia Crisis. During the Spanish Civil War of 1936–39, she spent considerable time in Spanish waters, enforcing the arms blockade imposed by Britain and France on both sides of the conflict. Encounter was assigned to convoy escort and anti-submarine patrol duties in the Western Approaches, when World War II began in September 1939. She participated in the Norwegian Campaign before joining Force H in mid-1940 and was present during the Battles of Dakar and Cape Spartivento later that year. The ship was transferred to the Mediterranean Fleet in 1941 where she escorted convoys to Malt

Although assigned to the Home Fleet upon completion, the ship was attached to the Mediterranean Fleet in 1935–36 during the Abyssinia Crisis. During the Spanish Civil War of 1936–39, she spent considerable time in Spanish waters, enforcing the arms blockade imposed by Britain and France on both sides of the conflict.

She participated in the Norwegian Campaign before joining Force H in mid-1940 and was present during the Battles of Dakar and Cape Spartivento later that year. The ship was transferred to the Mediterranean Fleet in 1941 where she escorted convoys to Malta. Encounter was badly damaged while refitting at Malta a few weeks after arriving in the Mediterranean and was briefly reassigned to Force H after her repairs were completed before rejoining the Mediterranean Fleet later in the year. Late in the year, the ship was transferred to the Eastern Fleet at Singapore and spent several months in early 1942 on convoy escort duties under the control of American-British-Dutch-Australian Command (ABDACOM). She was one of the Allied ships retasked to intercept Japanese invasion convoys during the Dutch East Indies Campaign in February 1942 and participated in the Battle of the Java Sea. Encounter was sunk a few days later in the Second Battle of the Java Sea on 1 March and most of her crew were rescued by a Japanese ship the next day. About a quarter of them died in captivity before the end of the war in 1945. The ship's wreck was discovered in 2007 and had been almost totally destroyed by illegal salvagers by 2016. (en)

  • Lo HMS Encounter (pennant number H10) fu un cacciatorpediniere della Royal Navy britannica appartenente alla classe E, entrato in servizio nel settembre del 1934. Attivo durante la seconda guerra mondiale, il cacciatorpediniere servì su un gran numero di teatri bellici tanto in Europa quanto in Asia. Allo scoppio della guerra l'Encounter fu in forza alla Home Fleet, operando nella scorta ai convogli nelle acque di casa oltre a prendere parte alla campagna di Norvegia. Nel luglio 1940 fu inviato a operare nel teatro bellico del mar Mediterraneo, servendo tanto in forza alla Force H di Gibilterra che alla Mediterranean Fleet di base ad Alessandria d'Egitto: tra le varie azioni, il cacciatorpediniere prese parte alla battaglia di capo Teulada e al bombardamento navale di Genova, nonché a svariate operazioni di protezione dei convogli diretti a Malta. Nel novembre 1941 infine l'unità fu riassegnata in forza alla Eastern Fleet nell'oceano Indiano, trasferendosi ai primi di dicembre nella base di Singapore. Dopo l'ingresso in guerra dell'Impero giapponese e l'avvio delle operazioni belliche sul fronte del Pacifico, l'Encounter prese parte alla campagna delle Indie orientali olandesi con le forze inter-alleate dell'American-British-Dutch-Australian Command. Sopravvissuto indenne alla grave sconfitta alleata nella prima battaglia del Mare di Giava del 27 febbraio 1942, mentre cervava di evacuare da Giava l'Encounter finì affondato il 1º marzo seguente da unità navali giapponesi durante la seconda battaglia del Mare di Giava.
