Argentine Aircraft Carrier ARA Independencia V-1

Launched in 1944 as HMS Warrior, ARA Independencia V-1 was sold to Argentina in 1958. The ship was commissioned into the Argentine Navy on 8 July 1959.

The air group, which had a maximum 24 aircraft, was mainly formed from Vought F4U Corsairs, North American SNJ-5Cs Texans and Grumman S2F-1 (S-2A) Trackers. Naval Aviation inventory also included Grumman F9F Panther and TF-9J Cougar jets, although Independencia proved to be unsuitable for operating them. After the aircraft carrier ARA Veinticinco de Mayo entered service in 1969, Independencia moved to the reserve in 1970. She was scrapped in 1971.
