An aerodynamic shape was a distinguishing feature of the carrier's architecture. The aircraft carrier covered the landing of Allied forces on Madagascar and took part in Operation Pedestal. After the war, Indomitable replaced battleship Vanguard as the flagship of the Home Fleet.</p><p> </p></div>
The last ship from the ''Illustrious''-class carriers, which represented a revolutionary breakthrough in the development of aircraft carriers thanks to the introduction of an armored flight deck. In contrast to the lead ship, she had an additional hanger and so could carry more aircraft.

===Pros===
''Indomitable'' joins the Royal Navy in World of Warships as its first premium Tier VIII aircraft carrier, bringing with her a very unique playstyle. Her most striking difference from Implacable, her tech tree counterpart, is a lack of torpedo bombers, forcing Indomitable captains to double down on her attack aircraft and level bombers. As a result, ''Indomitable'' is a very situational aircraft carrier, and must choose her targets carefully.
* Pro 1
* Pro 2


''Indomitable’s'' attack aircraft have several differences with ''Implacable’s''. While her payloads deal less total damage, ''Indomitable’s'' attack aircraft are considerably faster, cruising at a base speed of 188 knots and 228 knots with boost, allowing her to react much more quickly to opportunities and strike destroyers. Furthermore, the enhanced speed allows Indomitable to offset her increased plane regeneration time: 115 seconds without upgrades or captain skills.
===Cons===
* Con 1
* Con 2


''Indomitable’s'' level bombers also have tweaked parameters. ''Indomitable’s'' level bombers have only two sets of two planes per attack flight and less bombs per payload, but an abnormally high speed for bombers of her tier: 182 knots cruising and up to 217 knots with boost. Furthermore, ''Indomitable’s'' level bombers have a whopping 2590 base HP, higher than even Audacious’ of 2340. This allows Indomitable to excel at hit-and-run strikes, but against all but low AA targets, she struggles to get two complete strikes off.


At 13.5km base detection range, Indomitable is also stealthier than her tech tree equivalent. With the Hidden Menace captain skill and Concealment System Modification 1, she can reach 10km of sea detection range, allowing her to reposition much more easily and stay closer to the battle. Additionally, each of ''Indomitable’s'' plane types carry 4 charges of the Patrol Fighters consumable, decreasing the number of times squadron commanders may find themselves out of fighters on a specific plane type.

Upgrade Slot 5 offers Flight Control Modification 1, which will significantly decrease the long plane regeneration time and increase the number of planes on deck. Because ''Indomitable'' has fairly good base concealment, Concealment Modification 1 is not as vital, especially with commander skill Concealment Expert. However, captains seeking to maximize stealth may consider using Concealment Modification 1.

===History===
<gallery>
HMS ''Indomitable'' (pennant number 92) was a modified ''Illustrious''-class aircraft carrier of the Royal Navy. The ''Illustrious'' class was developed in the 1937 Naval Programme. Originally planned to be the fourth of the class, she was redesigned to enable her to operate more aircraft, 48 instead of 36. A second hangar was added above the original, raising the flight deck by 14 feet (4.3 m), although the hangar side armour had to be reduced to compensate. The lower hangar was made shorter than the upper hangar due to the need for extra workshops and accommodation to support the added aircraft.

**The composition of the attacking wave of the rocket attack aircraft was changed. Now the flight has two planes instead of three, which will allow you to make three attacks in one flight instead of two.

Indomitable — U.K. Premium Tier VIII Aircraft Carrier.

HMS Indomitable, the fourth ship of the Illustrious series, was an attempt to solve the problem with the small air group size: the hangar was expanded by means of building an additional semi-hangar, which increased the carrier's capacity to 48 airplanes, but worsened the hangar side armor protection. An aerodynamic shape was a distinguishing feature of the carrier's architecture. The aircraft carrier covered the landing of Allied forces on Madagascar and took part in Operation Pedestal. After the war, Indomitable replaced battleship Vanguard as the flagship of the Home Fleet.
