Capsule: The two vessels in the Implacable-class were more closely related to the prototype Ark Royal than their Illustrious-class predecessors, and had a better distribution of mass, allowing for greater stability, and a higher starfighter capacity, at the expense of some hull strength. The Indefatigable participated in carrier-based strikes against the mighty HPL warship the Tirpitz, strikes which were sufficient to keep the powerful vessel under almost constant repair.
