HMS Aurora, a British Arethusa-class light cruiser, was built in Portsmouth between 1935 and 1937. The ship participated in the Norwegian campaign and the hunt for Bismarck, intercepted Italian convoys in the Mediterranean, and covered the landings of Allied forces in Africa, Sicily, and France. In 1948, the cruiser was transferred to the Republic of China Navy, where she received the name Chungking and was made their flagship. On February 25, 1949, the cruiser and her entire crew sided with the Communist Party of China, but a month later, the ship was sunk by Kuomintang aviation. After the civil war, the cruiser was raised, but plans to repair and upgrade her were never implemented.
