Five ships and a number of shore establishments of the Royal Navy have borne the name HMS ''Daedalus'', after the mythical Daedalus: * was a 32-gun fifth rate frigate launched in 1780. She was lent to Trinity House between 1803 and 1806 as a hulk, and was broken up in 1811. * was a 38-gun fifth rate, previously the Venetian frigate ''Corona''. She was captured from the French in 1811 and was wrecked in 1813. * was a 46-gun fifth rate launched in 1826. She was reduced to 20 guns in 1843 and became a Royal Naval Reserve drill ship in 1862. She was sold in 1911. *HMS ''Daedalus'' was an iron screw floating battery launched in 1856 as HMS ''Thunderbolt''. Converted to a floating pierhead in 1873, she bore the name HMS ''Daedalus'' between 1916 and 1919 whilst serving as the nominal depot ship of the Royal Naval Air Service. The vessel was sunk in 1948 when a tug collided with her, and raised the following year to be broken up. *HMS ''Daedalus'' was to have been a ''Danae'' class light cruiser. She was ordered in 1918, but cancelled later that year. *HMS ''Daedalus'' was a naval air station, also known as RNAS Lee-on-Solent. The base was opened in 1917 and transferred to the RAF in 1918. It was returned to the successor of the Royal Naval Air Service, the Fleet Air Arm in 1939. It and various out-stations bore the name HMS ''Daedalus'' between 1957 and 1996. * was a seaplane base and training establishment at several locations around the United Kingdom. Commissioned in 1940, the base was paid off in 1946. * was an accommodation and release centre at Lee on Solent and Bedhampton between 1943 and 1947. ==References== * * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「HMS Daedalus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
