Independencia: Tier X Pan-American (Argentine) Premium Aircraft Carrier 1945
A Colossus-class light aircraft carrier that originally served in the Canadian and British navies under the name Warrior. In the second half of the 1950s, she was refitted to accommodate and launch the modern aircraft of the time and received, among other upgrades, an angled flight deck. In 1958, the carrier was sold to Argentina and renamed Independencia. As the first aircraft carrier in the Argentine Navy, she remained in active service until the late 1960s, where she played a key role in developing the country’s naval aviation.

More Details
A Colossus-class light Fleet Carrier, first ordered as HMS Warrior for the Royal Navy, this ship was laid down in December 1942. She was transferred to the Royal Canadian Navy for a short period before returning to British service. She served as a test bed for the experimental rubber flight deck concept, as well as being refitted with an angled flight deck in 1956. In 1957, she was the HQ for the nuclear weapon testing at Christmas Island.
Independencia arrives as the first Pan-American Carrier. As a member of the Colossus Class, already present with the Royal Navy, her low speed and weak protection will mean that you must make sure you are safe during battle, otherwise it could all be over very soon.
