HMS Necker was the armed transport Necker or Neker that HMS Hannibal captured off the Cape of Good Hope on 25 October 1781. Hannibal encountered the French frigate Bellone, escorting the transports Neker and Sévère. She captured the transports and brought them to Saint Helena. Necker may have been a flute that served the French navy from 1779 to 1781, but for which there is no information other than her existence. She disappeared, presumed foundered, circa December 1781 on her way from Saint Helena to the East Indies.

Ship notes
| - Several sources confuse this Necker with the French privateer that an armed whaler captured early in 1781 in the North Sea. There is also the possibility that both of these have been conflated with a third Necker, of about 600 tons burthen, that foundered in December 1789 at Malacca. (en)
