Ivan Berryman Art  Royal Navy Aircraft Carriers  HMS Glorious |
HMS Glorious Launched : 24th February 1930 HMS Glorious and her sister ship HMS Courageous were converted into aircraft carriers after it was discovered that the firing of their main armament was causing structural damage to the ships. HMS Glorious was converted in 1930. An interesting fact, was that their main armament of 15inch guns were stored and finally re used for the last battleship of the Royal Navy, HMS Vanguard. The four 15-inch guns from HMS Glorious were mounted aft, and those from Courageous were mounted forward on HMS Vanguard. Converted to Aircraft Carrier, and commissioned 24th February 1930. Sunk 8th June 1940. |
