    HMS Eagle was an aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy. It was laid down prior to the First World War as the Battleship Almirante Cochrane for Chile. In 1917 she was purchased by Britain for conversion to a through-deck aircraft carrier, being commissioned in 1924. Eagle remained in service at the outbreak of the Second World War, serving mainly in the Mediterranean, where she was took part in escorting several convoys to Malta, and in delivering fighter aircraft to Malta to boost its air defences. Eagle was torpedoed and sunk by the German U-boat U-73 on 11 August 1942, while part of the escort to a convoy to Malta.
