HMS Aspirant (W 134) was a Favourite-class tugboat of the Royal Navy during World War II.

Aspirant was laid down in late 1942 at the Levingston Shipbuilding Company in Orange, Texas as BATR-42, launched 10 October 1942[1] and commissioned into the Royal Navy under Lend-Lease on 3 May 1943.

Aspirant was returned to the US Navy on 20 March 1946, struck 1 May 1946 and transferred to the Maritime Commission on 18 November 1946 for disposal.

She was sold in 1947 to the Moran Towing and Transportation Company and resold in 1948 to the Office d’Exploitation des Transports Coloniaux in Belgian Congo, where she was renamed Vivi.
