Her Majesty's ship, Ark Royal. I was commissioned as a full fleet carrier.

I participated in many operations in the Atlantic and Mediterranean. It was these deadly Swordfish that ended the pursuit of that battleship Bismarck.[1] U-boats? They're dangerous. You need to be careful of underwater enemies.[2]

Her Majesty's ship, Ark Royal. 本格的な艦隊型航空母艦として就役。

大西洋や地中海まで、数々の作戦は参加した。あの戦艦Bismarck追撃戦では、この必殺のSwordfishははなったな。 U-boatか?あれは危険だ。水面下の敵は気をつける。

Ah, that's right! It's not a problem if they're outdated. If there are no enemy fighters, my Swordfish are good enough for the job. It's not performance that matters, but the results on the battlefield. Admiral? ...Ah, he's not listening huh?[3]
ああ、そうだ!旧式かどうか問題ではない。敵の戦闘機さいいなければ、我がSwordfishは十分な働きお示すだろう。性能ではないのだ、戦場と戦い方だ。Admiral?・・・あ、聞いてないか?

  1. It was Swordfish bombers from the Ark Royal that took out the Bismarck's rudder during the pursuit that allowed the rest of the Royal Navy to catch up and corner the Bismarck.
  2. She was sunk by U-81 while returning to Gibraltar in 1941.
  3. The Fairey Swordfish she carried were slow and outdated by World War 2 standards. But were still fairly effective if they didn't encounter enemy air cover.
  4. This line is shared with expedition selection, resource collection, instant repair and development.
  5. Force H was the Royal Navy formation tasked with maintaining naval power in the Mediterranean.
  6. "Kidou Butai" literally means 'mobile force' but the IJN used the term to refer to their carrier task forces.
