Overview
The first ship in the world laid down as an aircraft carrier. It was based on a cruiser hull of the D type. After beginning service, Hermes was sent to the Mediterranean, and later to the China Station, where it served for ten years. During World War II, Hermes participated in anti-submarine patrols, the raid on Dakar, and the search for the pocket battleship Graf Spee. In the winter of 1941–42, the carrier arrived in Sri Lanka to prepare for the invasion of Madagascar. Hermes was sunk by aircraft from Japanese carriers on April 9, 1942.
