HMS Ark Royal

. The first enemy aircraft shot down by the Fleet Air Arm was with one of her Blackburn Skuas, while her bombers sank the German cruiser Königsberg, the first example of a capital ship being sunk by an attack from the air. Better remembered is the Ark Royals role in the sinking of the Bismarck, where her Fairey Swordfish launched a torpedo attack that damaged its rudder, leaving it vulnerable to the rest of the fleet. Other notable actions included convoys to Malta, the Norwegian campaign and involvement in the first U-boat kill of the war. In 1941 she was struck by a torpedo and sank while under tow.
