There is a web page on the Fleet Air Arm, which I have bookmarked, that provides huge amounts of detail about the wartime ships, planes, and squadrons. I think it's something like fleetairarmarchive.
Try this: http://www.fleetairarmarchive.net/Ships/Chaser.html I think that the picture shown may be the same one as your atavar. She is also listed among the Archer class on p37 of 's fighting Ships of World War II, but as always with 's, the information is strictly technical and is not always totally reliable, due to it having been originally a contemporary publication and based on the best known information available at the time. PS: my internet security package, as usual, will not show the correct name above, becaus eit happens to be my middle name. It word is J. a. n. e.
