'''H.M.S. ''Scott''''' was one of eight flotilla leaders of the [[Scott Class Flotilla Leader (1917)|''Scott'' class]].

==Service==
Her sinking is sometimes thought to be by mining, by {{DE-UC17}}, but Uboat.net has chosen a torpedo from {{DE-U71}} as the cause of her loss.  They are generally the most authoritative arbiters of such fare.
