HMS Hermes was laid down before the end of WWII but was only completed in 1959 after many changes in design to accommodate the new jet aircraft. When the new Sea Harrier came into operation she was given a special ramp to allow her to operate the new aircraft. She was flagship in the Falkland's conflict in 1982 and only two years later put into reserve and subsequently sold to India.
