Victory at Sea - HMS Ark Royal

Victory at Sea - HMS Ark Royal brings one of the most renowned aircraft carriers of World War II to your naval battles. A key asset to the Royal Navy, Ark Royal played a pivotal role in early wartime operations, from sinking the German cruiser Königsberg—the first capital ship destroyed by an air attack—to escorting convoys to Malta and engaging in the Norwegian campaign.

Her most famous moment came during the pursuit of Bismarck, when her Fairey Swordfish bombers launched a decisive torpedo attack that crippled the battleship’s rudder, sealing its fate. Ark Royal was also instrumental in the first U-boat kill of the war, proving her versatility as both an offensive and defensive force. Despite her successes, she was struck by a torpedo in 1941 and sank while under tow. This highly detailed model allows players to command one of Britain’s most decorated carriers, making it an essential addition to any Victory at Sea fleet. Available now at Boarding School Games.
