HMS Meteor was a M-class destroyer built for the Royal Navy during World War II.

HMS Meteor was ordered on 7 July 1939, as one of eight destroyers of the M class, a near repeat of the previous L-class.

The ship was laid down at the Alexander Stephen shipyard of Linthouse, Glasgow on 14 September 1940, launched on 3 November 1941 and commissioned on 12 August 1942.

[5][6] Following the return from the Arctic, in November 1942, Meteor acted as part of the destroyer screen for the Home Fleet during Operation Torch, the Anglo-American invasion of French North Africa.

Following the Second World War Meteor, along with three other ships of the same class, was transferred to the Turkish Navy as part of an agreement signed at Ankara on 16 August 1957.
