HMS Implacable

HMS Implacable

Three ships of the Royal Navy have been named HMS "Implacable":

* The first "Implacable", launched in 1795 as the French ship "Duguay-Trouin", was a 74-gun third-rate ship of the line. Captured by the British on 3 November 1805, she was renamed "Implacable". She was scuttled in 1949, by then the second oldest ship of the Navy (after "Victory").
* The second "Implacable", launched in 1899, was a "Formidable"-class battleship. She served in World War I and fought at the Dardanelles. She was sold for scrapping in 1921.
* The third "Implacable" (R86), launched in 1942, was the lead ship of her class of aircraft carriers. She served in World War II and was broken up in 1954.
