HNLMS Nautilus (M12) was a minelayer and fisheries protection vessel built for the Royal Netherlands Navy (RNN) during the 1920s. Completed in 1930, she played a minor role during the Second World War. After Germany invaded the Netherlands in May 1940 the ship fled to the United Kingdom. Nautilus served as a convoy escort before she was sunk after a collision with a British merchant ship in 1941.
