HMS Legion was a Laforey-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy during the 1910s.

[2] The turbines developed a total of 24,500 shaft horsepower (18,300 kW) and gave a maximum speed of 29 knots (54 km/h; 33 mph).

The ships carried a maximum of 280 long tons (280 t) of fuel oil that gave them a range of 1,750 nautical miles (3,240 km; 2,010 mi) at 15 knots (28 km/h; 17 mph).

The ships were also fitted with two above-water twin mounts for 21-inch (533 mm) torpedoes.

The ship saw action in several engagements, including the Battle off Texel.
