HMS Ark Royal (R09) was an Audacious-class aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy and, when she was decommissioned in 1979, was the Royal Navys last remaining conventional catapult and arrested-landing aircraft carrier. She was the first aircraft carrier to be tendance equipped with an angled flight deck at its commissioning; her sister ship, HMS Eagle, was the Royal Navys first angle-decked aircraft carrier after modification in 1954. Ark Royal was the only non-United States vessel to operate the McDonnell Douglas Phantom at sea.
