HMS Undaunted was a destroyer of the Royal Navy. In the spring of 1945 she sailed with Task Force 57 and screened the carriers.

On 10 October 1944, Eric Reginald Sharp Campbell became captain of HMS Undaunted. His command began months before the ship's days with Task Force 57 in March and April 1945.

On 23 March 1945 Undaunted sailed with Task Force 57. She screened the carriers against the Sakishima airfields, staying with those ships while the force faced the airfields.

On 1 April 1945, at Okinawa, Undaunted was in the screen of Task Force 57. She remained with the carriers there, and she was not sunk.

HMS Undaunted survived the war. She was not sunk, and the hull was still in being when the war ended.
