HNLMS Witte de With (Dutch: Hr.Ms. Witte de With) was an Admiralen-class destroyer built for the Royal Netherlands Navy during the 1920s. Completed in 1930, the ship served during the early stages of the Pacific War, participating in the Battle of the Java Sea in early 1942. After being damaged in an airstrike, she was scuttled in March 1942 to prevent her capture by the Japanese.
