The ''Audacious''-class aircraft carriers were a class of aircraft carriers proposed by the British government in the 1930s – 1940s and completed after the Second World War. The two ships built were heavily modified and diverged over their service lives. They were in operation from 1951 until 1979. History The ''Audacious'' class was originally designed as an expansion of the with double storied hangars. However, it was realised that the hangar height would not be sufficient for the new aircraft that were expected to enter service, so the design was considerably enlarged.

At the end of hostilities ''Africa'' and ''Eagle'' were cancelled. Work on the remaining two was suspended. They would be renamed and built to differing designs in the 1950s.

Both of these were turret-armed ships, and the press agitated for a turret-mounted armament in these newly ordered ships. The Admiralty, however, decided that as there had been built a long succession of successful broadside ironclads, and no turret-armed ships had been produced other than some coastal defence ships of low displacement and limited range, it would be better to await the assessment of ''Monarch'' and ''Captain'' before departing from the broadside principle. As the ships were intended for service in waters far distant from Britain, and given th ...
