Historical information

HMS Hood was the last battlecruiser built for the Royal Navy. Commissioned in 1920, it was named after the 18th-century Admiral Samuel Hood.

One of four Admiral-class battlecruisers ordered in mid-1916, Hood had serious design limitations, though her design was drastically revised after the Battle of Jutland and improved while she was under construction. For this reason it was the only ship of her class to be completed.

As one of the largest and, ostensibly, the most powerful warships in the world, Hood was the pride of the Royal Navy and, carrying immense prestige, was known as "The Mighty Hood".
