HMS Repulse and her sister ship Renown had additional armour platting fitted especially over the crowns of the Magazines, Steering Room and over the Engine Room.  HMS Repluse was the first Ship to be fitted with a flying off platform in the autumn of 1917. Squadron leader Rutland successfully flew a Sopwith Pup from the B turret on 1st October 1917.   After the first world war, The Royal navy rectified the fault of having thin armour by giving the Belt armour  from the ex Chilean battleship Almirante Cochrame (which was being converted to an aircraft carrier).
