Capítulo 565: Chapter 440: Chaotic Order

If Arthur remembers correctly, the United Kingdom's first real aircraft carrier was built around 1917 to 1918, in the later stages of history's World War I.

At that time, British aircraft carriers were still converted from cruisers, with the front main guns being replaced by a downward-tilted wooden runway.

Such a design had too many flaws, which is why during World War II, aircraft carriers gradually became the top choice for various countries' warships.

However, the second design of the aircraft carrier developed by the Sydney Royal Shipyard effectively addressed the flaws of carriers converted from cruisers or battleships.

With Arthur's approval, Australasia began construction of not only two new Hope-class super dreadnoughts but also two Giant-class aircraft carriers.

The Giant-class aircraft carrier was an entirely new warship design and not a carrier converted from battleships and cruisers like those made by the British.
