the WW2 version (as in "Sink the Bismark") was sunk 1941

so, post war is new build

There was a few before then too.

 

Ark Royal, Flagship of the English Fleet facing the Spanish Armada

And the WW1 Aircraft Carrier Ark Royal...

 

So the WW2 one, sunk by a U-boat is the third.

Ark Royal R09 was commissioned in 1955:

 

 

wiki:

Ark Royal was the first ship to be constructed with an angled flight deck and steam catapults, as opposed to having them added after launching

I mean the one we have for the sim.

We have the post-war R09 and there is also the Invincible class version.

AFAIK the WW2 version isn't available.

Is it possible to remove the angled deck from post-war R09 to create the WW2 Version? I really want one can ya tell?

[Wrench 9,849]

nope

'remove component trick' dosen't work on groun dobjects ... I've alredy tried

 

in essence, a complety NEW model would be needed

AAAAAHHHH Poo!

Ark Royal (91) was a unique ship - nothing like the post war one - the best model to use is the old Eagle Straight deck model from the carrier pack which has model men on the deck - I probably wont get round to doing the korean war and WW2 era for a while yet.
