:''For other ships named HMS Invincible, see [[HMS Invincible (disambiguation)]]''

'''HMS Invincible (BC-416)''' was a [[Reliant-class]] [[battlecruiser]] assigned to [[Second Fleet]]. Commanded by [[CAPTSG]] [[User:JNeitz|John Neitz]], [[RMN]], ''Invincible'' was commissioned with [[BuShips Directive 1205-01]] and its charter city was [[wikipedia:Minneapolis|Minneapolis, Minnesota]].

==History==
''Invincible's'' crew traced its lineage to {{hms|Merlin|CA-270}}, which was the first ship launched in Second Fleet, and one of the earliest chapters in TRMN.

Cruiser Division 211 was the first [[echelon unit]] formed in {{trmn}} (TRMN). ''Invincible'' was the division flagship, with ''Merlin'' and {{hms|Samurai|CL-356}} as the other ships. <ref>[[Naval Directive 12AP-03]]</ref>

In October 2012, [[Battlecruiser Squadron 21]]<ref>[[Naval Directive 12OC-01]]</ref> was formed with ''Invincible'' as its flagship.

In 2013, ''Invincible'' was decommissioned and its namesake [[superdreadnought]] {{hms|Invincible|SD-455|hcn}} was launched, with the battlecruiser crew transferring to the superdreadnought.
