Two ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Aigle, after the French for Eagle:

• HMS Aigle was a French frigate launched in 1780 that the French navy purchased in 1782 and that the British captured that same year. The British took her into the Royal Navy as a 38-gun fifth rate under her existing name. She wrecked in 1798 on Plane Island (Île Plane) ( 37°10′54″N10°19′40″E / 37.18167°N 10.32778°E / 37.18167; 10.32778 ) off Cape Farina, Tunisia, due to an error in navigation. All the crew were saved.
• HMS Aigle (1801) was a 36-gun fifth rate launched in 1801. She was used as a coal hulk from 1853, sunk in shallow water during torpedo experiments, and was sold in 1870 for breaking up.
