Eight ships of the Royal Navy have been named HMS Challenger, most famously the fifth, the survey vessel Challenger that carried the Challenger expedition from 1872 to 1876. * The first was a 16-gun brig-sloop launched in 1806 that the French captured in 1811. By some accounts she became the American privateer . * The second HMS Challenger (1813) was an 18-gun Cruizer-class brig-sloop launched in 1813 and later used as a store hulk before being sold in 1824 at Trincomalee. * The third HMS Challenger (1826) was a 28-gun sixth rate launched in 1826 and wrecked off Chile in 1835. Under the command of Charles Fremantle, it was in part responsible for the creation of the colony of Western Australia in 1829. * The fourth Challenger was to have been an 18-gun corvette of 810 tons; the ship
