Four ships of the Royal Navy have been named HMS Bellerophon after the hero Bellerophon in Greek mythology, whilst another two were planned:

  • {{HMS|Bellerophon|1786}} was a 74-gun third rate launched in 1786. She became a prison ship in 1815, was renamed HMS Captivity in 1824, and was sold in 1836.
  • HMS Waterloo (1818), was an 80-gun third rate, originally named HMS Talavera but renamed {{HMS|Waterloo|1818|6}} before her launch in 1818. She was renamed HMS Bellerophon in 1824, relegated to harbour service in 1848. She then saw active service at Sebastopol during the Crimean War 1854 - 56. Her gun crews manned off-loaded guns ashore and were nicknamed "The Bellerophon Doves". She sustained some damage during the bombardment of Sebastopol and was finally sold for breaking up in 1892.
  • {{HMS|Bellerophon|1865}} was an ironclad battleship launched in 1865. She was renamed Indus III in 1904 and used for training, and was sold in 1922.
  • {{HMS|Bellerophon|1907}} was a {{sclass-|Bellerophon|battleship|2}} launched in 1907 and sold for breaking up in 1921.
  • HMS Bellerophon was to have been a {{sclass-|Minotaur|cruiser (1943)|0}} cruiser. She was ordered in 1942, but was renamed {{HMS|Blake|C99|6}} before construction started in 1944.
  • HMS Bellerophon was to have been a Minotaur-class cruiser. She was renamed {{HMS|Tiger|C20|6}} in 1945 whilst under construction and was launched later that year.
