HMS Jason was a Halcyon-class minesweeper. She was named after the hero in Greek mythology and was the sixteenth (and as of 2008, the final) Royal Navy ship to carry the name Jason. She was laid down on 12 December 1936, launched on 6 October 1937, and was completed on 9 June 1938. She survived the Second World War and was sold in 1946 to become a cargo ship. She was eventually broken up in 1950. Her pennant number was originally N99, but was changed to J99 in May 1940.
