HMS Comet was a {{sclass2-|C|destroyer (1943)|0}} destroyer of the Royal Navy, built by Yarrow at Scotstoun. She was launched on 22 June 1944 and commissioned on 6 June 1945.

Operational service

On commissioning Comet served as part of the 8th Destroyer Squadron in the Far East. She returned to the UK for a refit in 1948.[1] She was given an interim modernization and was fitted for minelaying.[2] She then served as part of the 6th Destroyer Squadron in the Home Fleet between 1953 and 1957.[3]

Decommissioning and disposal

Comet was paid off in February 1958. Following her sale she arrived at the breakers yard for scrapping at Troon on 23 October 1962.
