Night Hawk was an armed trawler of the Royal Navy that served in the First World War. She was built in 1911 as a fishing trawler but was requisitioned by the Navy at the start of the war. While working to clear a minefield laid by the Germans during the raid on Scarborough, Hartlepool and Whitby Night Hawk struck a mine and sank on Christmas Day 1914, with the loss of six of her crew.
