Vengeur was a 118-gun Océan-class ship of the line of the French Navy launched in 1803. She was the first ship in French service to sport 18-pounder long guns on her third deck, instead of the lighter 12-pounder long guns used before for this role. Renamed Impérial in 1805, she was destroyed at the Battle of San Domingo in 1806.
