HMS Tiger (C20)
HMS ''Tiger'' was a conventional cruiser of the Royal Navy, one of a three ship class known as the . Ordered during the Second World War, she was completed only after its end. The cruiser was later converted to a helicopter-carrying and guided missile cruiser in the early 1970s. She remained in service as such until placed in reserve in 1978 and was discarded in 1986.
==Construction, redesign and commissioning==
''Tiger'' started out as ''Bellerophon''; she was laid down in 1941 at the John Brown Shipyard as part of the of light cruisers. These vessels had a low construction priority due to more pressing requirements for other ship types during the Second World War, particularly anti-submarine craft. ''Bellerophon'' was renamed ''Tiger'' in 1945, and was launched, partially constructed, on 25 October 1945. She was christened by Lady Stansgate, the wife of William Benn, the Secretary of State for Air, and mother of MP Anthony Wedgewood Benn. However, work on ''Tiger'' was suspended in 1946, and she was laid up at Dalmuir.
Construction of ''Tiger'' resumed, but to a new design, with ''Tiger'' becoming the name ship of the class. The new design was approved in 1951, but construction did not resume until 1954. The ship would have semi-automatic guns in twin high-angle mounts with each gun capable of shooting 20 rounds per minute, and a secondary battery of fully automatic weapons which delivered 90 rounds per minute per gun. She would have no lighter anti-aircraft armament or torpedo tubes. Air conditioning was fitted throughout the ship, and a 200-line automatic telephone exchange was installed. Each 6 inch and 3 inch mounting had its own director, linked to a dedicated radar on the director. ''Tiger'' was finally commissioned on Clydebank in March 1959.
