HMS ''Hawkins'' was a heavy cruiser of the Royal Navy. She was built at Chatham Dockyard and launched on 1 October 1917.〔 With the conversion of her sister, ''Cavendish'', to become the aircraft carrier , ''Hawkins'' became the name ship of her class. ==Interwar career== ''Hawkins'' was commissioned on 25 July 1919 and became the flagship of the 5th Light Cruiser Squadron on the China Station. She spent less than a decade in active service before being paid off at Chatham to undergo a refit.〔Whitley 1995 p.80〕 During this refit, her coal-fired boilers were removed and the remaining oil-fired boilers modified. She recommissioned in December 1929, and became the flagship of the 2nd Cruiser Squadron as part of the Atlantic Fleet.〔 ''Hawkins'' was decommissioned again in May 1930 and reduced to the Reserve Fleet. She was recommissioned again in 1932 to become the Flagship of the 4th Cruiser Squadron in the East Indies, before again being reduced to the reserve in April 1935. The terms of the London Naval Treaty meant that in 1937, ''Hawkins'' was demilitarised and had all her 7.5 inch guns and the deck mounted torpedo tubes removed before she was again returned to reserve status. In September 1938 plans were drawn up to utilise ''Hawkins'' as a Cadets' Training Ship.〔
