Oryol (Russian: Орёл) was a wooden-hulled, steam-powered, 84-gun third-rate ship of the line built for the Imperial Russian Navy in the 1850s. She was begun as a sailing ship, but was converted to steam power while under construction. The ship served with the Baltic Fleet until she was stricken from the Navy List in 1863.
