HMS Eskimo was a Tribal-class destroyer that served throughout World War II. These destroyers were larger and more heavily armed than previous classes, with a main armament of eight 4.7-inch guns. Eskimo saw action in Norway, the Mediterranean, the English Channel, and Burma. During the Second Battle of Narvik, she was severely damaged by a torpedo. She was later damaged again by German dive bombers in the Mediterranean. Eskimo participated in sinking a German U-boat and also engaged German ships in the English Channel, sustaining further damage. After the war, she was used as an accommodation and headquarters ship before being used as a target and scrapped in 1949.
