D′Iberville was a French Navy Bougainville-class aviso, designed to operate from French colonies in Asia and Africa. She was launched on 23 September 1934.

After France surrendered to Germany in June 1940 during World War II, D′Iberville served with the navy of Vichy France. She was scuttled with other ships of the French fleet at Toulon, France, on 27 November 1942.
