Second World War and aftermath
The squadron was formed in November 1943 under the command of Rear-Admiral, Clement Moody, Flag Officer, Aircraft Carriers (British Pacific Fleet), who also held the title of Rear-Admiral, 1st Aircraft Carrier Squadron, at the same time.[1] While serving in the Pacific within the U.S. Fifth Fleet, the squadron was designated "Task Group 57.2". During Operation Iceberg off Okinawa, the squadron received heavy Kamikaze attacks. Their armoured flight decks were adequate protection for the hangar decks, but the stress caused deformation of the ships' structures.Шаблон:Citation needed.

After the war, the "1st Aircraft Carrier Squadron, Far East Fleet" consisting of the carriers Шаблон:HMS and Шаблон:HMS, with the cruiser Шаблон:HMS as flagship, was en route to Hong Kong from Japan when the Korean War broke out and was sent back to Japan.[3]
