This article is a stub



The Charger-class escort carrier was a class of light escort aircraft carriers used by the United States Navy. The class was also used by the British Royal Navy, but was known as the Avenger-class escort carrier. They were built from C-3 merchant ships and were given to the Royal Navy as part of a military aid. However, only three carriers made it and the last one was kept by the US Navy.[1]

Ships in class[]

  • HMS Avenger (D14)
  • HMS Biter (D97)
  • HMS Dasher (D37)
  • USS Charger (CVE-30)
