The Habicht class of steam gunboats was a class of three vessels built for the German Kaiserliche Marine in the late 1870s and early 1880s. The class comprised Habicht, the lead ship, along with Möwe and Adler. Intended to serve abroad, the ships were ordered as part of a construction program intended to modernize Germany's fleet of cruising vessels in the mid-1870s. The Habicht class was armed with a battery of five guns, and was the first class of German gunboat to use compound steam engines. The ships had a top speed of 11 knots.
