ARA Indómita (P-86) is an Intrépida-class fast attack craft of the Argentine Navy. The vessel has a twin sister ship, ARA Intrépida. It is the first Argentine ship to bear the name.

The vessel was reported active as of 2022. In October 2022 it was reported that Indómita had received an upgrade incorporating a Stabilized Naval Observation and Marksmanship System (SEON) to enhance her surveillance capabilities.

In 2023, Indómita, accompanied by the patrol boats Baradero and Barranqueras, conducted joint exercises with the patrol vessels Piloto Sibbald and Aspirante Isaza of the Chilean Navy.
