Den de Havilland DH.104 Duva är ett brittiskt kortdistansflygplan utvecklat och tillverkat av de Havilland. Designen, som var en monoplan efterföljare till Dragon Rapide-biplanet före kriget, kom från Brabazon-kommitténs rapport som bland annat krävde en brittiskdesignad kortdistansmatare för flygbolag.
