HMS Ark Royal 1939 – historical background

HMS Ark Royal (91) was a British aircraft carrier that entered service with the Royal Navy right before World War II. It was one of the most important British warships during the early war operations, including the famous Hunt for the Bismarck in 1941. Its unique design, with the hangar being an integral part of the hull, was a novelty at that time, and the ship served in the Royal Navy from 1938 to 1941, when it was sunk by the German U-boat U-81 in the Mediterranean Sea.
