HMS Perseus was a Colossus-class light fleet aircraft carrier built for the Royal Navy during World War II. The ship was initially named HMS Edgar, but she was renamed in 1944 when the Admiralty decided to convert her into an aircraft maintenance carrier. She was completed in 1945, after the end of World War II, and she made a trip to Australia late in the year. Upon her return to the UK in early 1946, Perseus was placed in reserve. The ship was recommissioned in 1950 to serve as the trials ship for the steam catapult then under development. Over 1,600 test launches were conducted before the catapult was removed in 1952 and she was converted for use as a ferry carrier to transport aircraft, troops and equipment overseas. She was reduced to reserve again in 1954 and sold for scrap in 1958.

  • La HMS Perseus era una portaerei costruita per la Royal Navy durante la seconda guerra mondiale. La nave fu inizialmente denominata HMS Edgar, ma fu ribattezzata nel 1944 quando l'Ammiragliato decise di convertirla. Fu completata nel 1945, dopo la fine della seconda guerra mondiale, e fece un viaggio in Australia verso la fine dell'anno. Al suo ritorno nel Regno Unito all'inizio del 1946, Perseo fu messo in riserva. La nave fu rimessa in servizio nel 1950 per servire come nave di prova per la catapulta a vapore in fase di sviluppo. Più di 1.600 lanci di test furono condotti prima che la catapulta fosse rimossa nel 1952 e fu convertita per essere usata come nave da trasporto per aerei, truppe e attrezzature oltreoceano. Fu ridotta a riserbo nel 1954 e venduta per rottami nel 1958. (it)

  • HMS Perseus – brytyjski lekki lotniskowiec floty typu Colossus. Zbudowany dla Royal Navy w czasie II wojny światowej. Pierwotnie nosił nazwę Edgar, ale został przemianowany w 1944 roku, gdy Admiralicja zdecydowała się na przebudowanie go na okręt warsztatowy dla samolotów. Został ukończony w 1945 roku, już po zakończeniu działań wojennych. W tym samym roku odbył rejs do Australii. Po powrocie na Wyspy Brytyjskie na początku 1946 roku „Perseus” został umieszczony w rezerwie. Do czynnej służby wrócił w 1950 roku, by służyć jako jednostka testowa nowych katapult parowych. W ciągu dwóch lat wykonano ponad 1600 prób testowych. Następnie katapulty zdemontowano, a okręt został użyty jako jednostka transportowa dla samolotów, żołnierzy i ekwipunku.

Hon togs åter i tjänst 1950 och tjänstgjorde som försöksfartyg för som då var under utveckling. Över 1 600 provstarter genomfördes innan katapulten togs bort 1952 och hon konverterades för användning som färjetransport för att transportera flygplan, trupper och utrustning utomlands.
