Historical description of HMS Penelope

HMS Penelope (17) was a British Arethusa-class light cruiser that served in the Royal Navy primarily during World War II. The ship entered service in 1936 and took part in numerous operations in the Mediterranean, including the battles for Malta and convoy operations. As a result, she became one of the most distinguished ships of her class, although she sank in February 1944 after being torpedoed by a German submarine near Naples. The 1940 deck accurately reflects the ship’s appearance during this stormy period.
