Operational Overview Britain’s Royal Navy led the way for the world in Naval Aviation, having one of the first Naval Air arms (the Royal Naval Air Service, established by the air-minded First Lord of the Admiralty Winston Churchill) which served valiantly in WWI and commissioning the first aircraft carrier, HMS Furious in 1917. Absorbed into the RAF between the wars, the Navy retrieved its air force just before WWII and the Fleet Air Arm has remained an important part of the Royal Navy ever since. The members of the Commonwealth of Nations have been part of this proud tradition, maintaining their own naval air forces as well.
