 British [[Ship_types_aircarrier|carriers]]<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_aircraft_carriers_of_the_Royal_Navy Aircraft carriers of the Royal Navy (Wikipedia)]</ref> were intoduced in update 0.8.2. Unlike other carrier lines of the Americans or Japanese, British carriers have HE bombers with the 'level bombing' feature. These are not your typical dive bombers as the planes fly horizontally over the target dropping several small bombs in the targeted area. As the bombs take time to fall, players have to time their drops wisely, taking the momentum of the target into account. British torpedo bombers are the easiest to use of all three nations. Although the damage per torpedo, speed and range are lacking; the torpedo bombers themselves have a tight turning circle and aiming guide. Multiple hits on the target will compensate for its somewhat poor stats. Attack aircraft is also something not to ignore, as they drop their payload faster than the two nations. They also arm faster, making easier for players to hit unplanned targets.

-British [[Ship_types_battleship|battleships]]<ref>[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pre-dreadnought_battleships_of_the_Royal_Navy Pre-dreadnought battleships of the Royal Navy (Wikipedia)] and [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_dreadnought_battleships_of_the_Royal_Navy Dreadnought battleships of the Royal Navy (Wikipedia)]</ref> rule the seas with grace and exemplary combat ability. These formidable ships are a serious threat to ships from every nation. Two separate branches starting at Tier III offer two unique playstyles. The first branch of fast battleships starts with III ''[[Bellerophon]]'' and ends with X ''[[Conqueror]]''. At low tiers, these fast battleships are well-armored, making them hard to kill with smaller caliber guns. However, they can be susceptible to large caliber [[Ship:Ammo#AP|armor-piercing]] (AP) shells. Players should try to avoid close-range gunfights with other battleships. Excelling in medium to long range combat, these ships can burn their enemies to the waterline before they have a chance to close the distance. British battleships fire some of the best [[Ship:Ammo#HE|high explosive]] (HE) shells in the game. They have a high fire chance, which means that salvos will often result in fires starting on the decks of enemy ships. However, their withering firepower isn't limited to HE shells. If an enemy ship is foolish enough to show her broadside, British AP rounds can be a quick ticket to port. Luckily, these ships aren't limited to just gunfighting. As players progress through the line, they will find the anti-aircraft power increasing with each new ship they unlock. When fully specialized for AA in higher tiers, the airspace above these battleships becomes a no-fly zone. Another perk of Tier IX ''[[Lion]]'' and Tier X ''[[Conqueror]]'' is a specialized version of the {{Repair Party}} consumable that makes up for their lower health pools compared to other battleships. In certain situations, this repair is capable of restoring nearly half of the ship's total hit points. All of this means that these battleships are truly survivors who fight to their last hit point.

 The second line of ships - starting with III ''[[Indefatigable]]'' and culminating in X ''[[St. Vincent]]'' - could be classified as battlecruisers rather than traditional fast battleships. Fast and lightly armored for their class, the British battlecruisers embody the Royal Navy’s doctrine regarding the role of a battlecruiser: sacrificing armor for speed without sacrificing firepower. These ships wield accurate, hard-hitting main battery guns with potent armor-piercing (AP) and high explosive (HE) shells that seasoned captains will find rewarding. The AP shells benefit from a shorter fuse, so these ships are less likely to overpenetrate thinly-armored targets. The HE shells (particularly those on Tier IX ''[[Duncan]]'' and X ''[[St. Vincent]]'') are notable for having high [[Ship:Fire#Fire_Chance|fire chances]]. Their relatively poor armor schemes are  compensated for with high top speeds and excellent concealment, allowing them to react quickly in rapidly changing battle conditions. The Tier VI through Tier X battlecruisers also come with a built-in acceleration buff, allowing them to reach full speed within 40 seconds rather than the typical 60 seconds of most other battleships. Similar to the first British battleship line, the high-tier battlecruisers have access to the powerful {{Specialized Repair Teams}} consumable to heal back large chunks of hitpoints. Starting with Tier V ''[[Tiger]]'', the British battlecruisers get access to the {{Engine Boost}} consumable that increases their acceleration and propels these large ships even faster than their already high base speeds. At Tier VI, they also gain access to the {{Defensive AA Fire}} consumable that increases the continuous AA damage by 50% and quadruples the flak burst damage for 40 seconds - a powerful tool to repel air attacks.
