HMS Fury

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ten ships of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS Fury, whilst another was planned but later cancelled:

  • Fury may have been one of two schooners built at Calcutta for the Bengal Government in 1799. She served for three years in the Red Sea before being turned over to the government in Bombay. The other was Wasp.[4] They both supported General Baird's expedition to Egypt to help General Ralph Abercromby expel the French there.[5]
