Two submarines of the United States Navy have been named USS Stingray for the stingray, a large ray with a whip-like tail and sharp spines capable of inflicting severe wounds:
- The first Stingray (Submarine No. 13), was a C-class submarine in commission from 1909 to 1919 that was renamed USS C-2 in 1911 and served during World War I.
- The second USS Stingray (SS-186) was a Salmon-class submarine in commission from 1938 to 1945 that served during World War II.
- For the fictional USS Stingray (SS-161), see Down Periscope.
