HMS Tiger (C20) (1959)
HMS Tiger was a conventional cruiser of the British Royal Navy, one of a three-ship class known as the Tiger class. Ordered during World War II, she was completed after its end. The Tiger class were a class of three British warships of the 20th century and the last all-gun cruisers of the Royal Navy.
Tiger was in service by 1960 and served in the Far East and then with the Home Fleet before going into reserve at the end of 1966. From 1968 Tiger was converted to a "helicopter and command cruiser" and equipped with guided missile anti-aircraft defence before returning to service in the early 1970s. She remained in service until 1978 when she was put into reserve and marked for disposal. There were moves to return her to service during the Falklands War for her flight deck capacity but it did not proceed. Tiger was finally sold for scrap in 1986.
