HMS Martin was an M-class destroyer of the Royal Navy, launched at the Tyneside yard of Vickers-Armstrongs on 12 December 1940.

After calling at Kola Inlet, whence she sailed on 24 August in company with Marne and Onslaught, Martin participated in sinking of the German minelayer Ulm on 25 July and taking 54 prisoners-of-war.

This convoy escaped air attack, but lost three ships out of fifteen to U-boats, which in addition sank two of the escort and a fleet oiler.

Martin was allocated to the escort group for Force "H" in Operation “Torch”, the landings in North Africa.

Martin was torpedoed by U-431 under command of Wilhelm Dommes on the morning of 10 November as a result of which she blew up and sank in position 37°53′N 003°57′E / 37.883°N 3.950°E / 37.883; 3.950.
