		HMS Ark Royal is larger than her 2 sisters (R05 Vince y R06 Lusty) at 210 metres (683 feet) long.
		The Fact that the current Ark was commissioned three years after the Falkalnds war proovesd that there was a need for a third carrier and Lusty was comissioned around the same time as the war leaving just two carriers in service back then, Vince and Hermes.
		Then in 1985 Ark Royal was built and another one in secret, which you know today as Invincible.

		The United Kingdom bought the F-4 for use with the Royal Air Force and Fleet Air Arm in the wake of the cancellation of home-grown projects such as the BAC TSR-2 and the Hawker Siddeley P.1154.
		The Fleet Air Arm Phantoms were fitted with a double-telescoping front landing gear strut which could extend 40 inches (102 cm), the increased angle of attack being necessary for catapult launches from the smaller British carrier HMS Ark Royal (R09).
		After the Falklands War, British-spec Phantoms were joined by 15 former US Navy F-4J(UK) upgraded to the F-4K/M standard to compensate for one interceptor squadron that was moved to the islands.

		This is a welcome opportunity for me to say well done and thank you to the Ship’s Company for keeping the ship fully operational right up to the end of the commission; not forgetting the support that we have all had from our wives and families.

	Royal Navy Aircraft Carriers Part 3
		Ark Royal was completed to a modified design, being considerably delayed to allow the incorporation of new technologies such as an angled flight deck and steam catapults.
		A 'ski-jump' is fitted at the bow to allow the use of Sea Harrier aircraft with full fuel and weapons loads (with which they are too heavy for VTOL operation).
		Ark Royal (which was laid down as Indomitable but renamed when Ark Royal (R09) decommissioned) was completed to a slightly modified design with more command facilities and a 12 rather than 7 degree ski-jump placed 40 ft. further forward than on the other two ships.
