The aircraft carrier HMSSVictorious was the second aircraft carrier of the Brilliance class. It was built in 1937 at the Vickers-Armstrong Shipyard in Newcastle upon Tyne and launched in 1939. Although it was delayed for a while, it was officially commissioned in 1941 due to the increased demand for British escort missions in the Atlantic Sea War. She participated in many famous operations, such as the siege of the Bismarck in 1941 - 1942, the Arctic Escort, and the Pedestal Operation. She was lent to the United States Navy from February to August 1943, renamed the USS Robin, and served as a member of the Third Fleet in the Southwest Pacific Ocean. In 1944, she participated in the tungsten war, which severely damaged the battleship Tieshi. As the threat of the German Navy was eliminated, it was redeployed to the Far East Fleet and then to the British Pacific Fleet to participate in the final battle against Japan. After the war, from 1950 to 1958, it was transferred to reserve service and modified to jet carrier aircraft, including the construction of a new superstructure above the hangar deck, a new inclined deck, a new boiler, the installation of 984 radar, data link, and heavy shipboard computer. In 1967, due to a variety of factors (the reduction of British naval investment, the end of the Indian-Malaysia confrontation, and the fire during the modification), it was retired three to five years ahead of schedule and dismantled in 1969. During World War II, the number of aircraft carriers was relatively high among the British aircraft carriers. They played an important role in many battles in World War II, such as the Indian Ocean Battle and the Battle of Sri Lanka. They were hit three times in the Battle of Pearl Harbor and successfully returned to the base to repair, winning the reputation of being "invincible". In the 1950 - 1958 modification, complete modifications were carried out, such as the removal of the upper structure above the hangar deck, the widening and deepening of the hull, the reconstruction of the hangar and the inclined deck, the installation of new catapults, etc. In 1962 - 1963, two double 76mm guns were installed, all 40mm guns were removed, and the flight deck was enlarged and strengthened.

The USS Iwo Jima was the first of the US Navy's Iwo Jima class ships. It entered service in August 1961. There were a total of seven ships of this class, and the seventh ship, Inchon, was completed in June 1970. The Iwo Jima class ships were cheap and cheap. They were not expensive, but they had strong combat capabilities. The standard displacement was about 11000 tons, and the full-load displacement was about 18000 tons. In order to control the cost and reduce the construction standards while ensuring the combat capability, affordable non-military materials and civilian ship standards were used for the design and construction. The Iwo Jima had a full-length flight deck, and there were two outrigger elevators at different locations on both sides of the hull to support aviation operations. It had outstanding medical support capabilities. There were a total of 300 medical beds on the ship, which could be expanded to 1000 when necessary. The ship's hospital also had special cabins such as radiology. However, the ship did not have a dock at the beginning of its design. It could only use helicopters to deliver troops and equipment. It lacked the ability to attack the beachhead. It needed to cooperate with the dock landing ship to achieve the beachhead attack. The ship could carry a helicopter squadron (about 28 - 32), a reinforced battalion of the Marine Corps (about 2000 people and equipment), helicopters and vertical take-off and landing aircraft, equipped with 8 Sea Sparrow anti-aircraft missiles x 2, 2 MK33 main guns, 2 MK15 "dense array" close-range anti-aircraft guns and other weapons, and also equipped with a variety of electronic equipment. In addition, the U.S. Navy also had a Wasp class assault ship called the Sulphur Jima (LHD - 7), which was built at the Ingles Shipyard on September 3, 1996. The keels were laid on December 12, 1997, and it was named by a sponsor on March 25, 2000. It entered service on June 30, 2001. The ship was 257 meters long and had a draft of 8.1 meters. It was powered by two boiler and two gear steam turbine. It could reach a speed of 22 knots and a displacement of 40500 tons. It had participated in many military operations, human aid, exercises, and other activities. The novel "Hundred Years of Spaceship" is equally exciting. Everyone is welcome to click and read it!
