The third USS Champion (BAM-1 / AM-314 / MSF-314) was an Auk-class minesweeper of the United States Navy. The ship was the first of 32 vessels of the Auk class ordered for transfer to Great Britain under Lend-Lease, and designated British Minesweeper HMS Akbar (BAM-1). Twelve of these ships were retained for service in the U. S. Navy. Launched on 12 December 1942 by General Engineering and Dry Dock Co., Alameda, California; redesignated USS Champion (AM-314) on 23 January 1943, and commissioned on 8 September 1943, Lieutenant Commander J. H. Howard, Jr., USNR, in command.
