I also think you are missing HMS Africa a planned yet never constructed Malta class cv

hi jimmychall , glad to see others interested in real naval history.

Actually H.M.S. Africa (D.06) was a Audacious class CV. which were about 36,000
tons as the Gibraltars would have been about 45,000 tons.

--- Audacious (D.29) ----- Renamed Eagle 1/46

--- Africa (D.06) ----- Cancelled 10/45

--- Eagle (94) ------- Cancelled

--- Irresistible (91) ----- Renamed Ark Royal (1945)

Hope this clears this up

pendent numbers of the majority of the worlds navy's its a good place to get names

*edit* HMS Implacable, HMS Indefatigable. Gibraltar Class of Carriers.
Thank you again: theswitcher, and also jimmychall, ted1701 and, breytalon. For your
input.

Lions were scrapped. 2 on the slips i believe. and 2 before they were laid down. And
I believe that they considered actually building one post war to maintain a modern
Battleship line. but the invent of newer technology started to mitigate the BBs role in
naval warfare.
However these units exist in game so i will provide historical ship names even if they
weren't physically in existence.

Perhaps you could name the Queen Elizabeth ships that were cancelled as well. If I
remember correctly there were 3 of them
