HMS Leopard was a 50-gun Portland-class fourth rate of the Royal Navy. She served during the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, and was notable for the actions of her captain in 1807, which were emblematic of the tensions that later erupted in the War of 1812 between Britain and America. HMS Leopard was wrecked in 1814.

She was first ordered on 16 October 1775 and laid down at Portsmouth Dockyard in January 1776. She was reordered in May 1785, ten years after having first been laid down, and construction began at Sheerness Dockyard on 7 May 1785. Work was at first overseen by Master Shipwright Martin Ware and after that, by John Nelson. She was launched from Sheerness on 24 April 1790. She was commissioned for service in June that year under her commander, Captain John Blankett.
