HMS Victorious (R38)
HMS ''Victorious'', ordered under the 1936 Naval Programme, was the third ''Illustrious''-class aircraft carrier after ''Illustrious'' and ''Formidable''. She was laid down at the Vickers-Armstrong shipyard at Newcastle-Upon-Tyne in 1937 and launched two years later in 1939. However, her commissioning was delayed until 1941 due to the greater need for escort vessels for service in the Battle of the Atlantic.
Her service in 1941 and 1942 included famous actions against the battleship ''Bismarck'', several Arctic convoys and the ''Pedestal'' convoy to Malta. She was loaned to the United States Navy in 1943 and served in the south west Pacific under the codename USS ''Robin''. ''Victorious'' contributed to several attacks on the ''Tirpitz''. The elimination of the German naval threat allowed her redeployment first to the Eastern Fleet at Colombo and then to the Pacific for the final actions of the war against Japan.
After the war, her service was broken by periods in reserve and the most complete reconstruction of any Royal Navy carrier between 1950–8, which involved the construction of new superstructure above the hangar deck level, a new enlarged flight deck,〔.〕 new boilers and the 984 3D AW and AD radar and data links and heavy shipboard computers able to track 50 targets and assess their priority for interrogation and interception. The reduction of Britain's naval commitment in 1967, with the end of the Confrontation with Indonesia, and a fire while under refit, prompted or excused her final withdrawal from service, 3–5 years early, and she was scrapped in 1969.
