Editing Invincible-class battlecruiser (section)

===Post-Jutland career===
The loss of three battlecruisers at Jutland (the others were {{HMS|Queen Mary||2}} and {{HMS|Indefatigable|1909|2}}) led to the force being reorganised into two squadrons, with ''Inflexible'' and ''Indomitable'' in the 2nd BCS. However, after Jutland there was little significant naval activity, for the ''Invincible''s, other than routine patrolling, thanks to the [[Kaiser Wilhelm II|Kaiser's]] order that his ships should not be allowed to go to sea unless assured of victory. The end of the war saw the end for many of the older vessels, not least the two remaining ''Invincible''-class ships. Both were sent to the Reserve Fleet in 1919, and were [[paid off]] in March 1920.<ref name=r22/>

After the end of the war, Chile began seeking additional ships for its navy. In April 1920, Chile bought [[Chilean battleship Almirante Latorre|''Canada'']] and four destroyers, all of which had been ordered by Chile prior to the war's outbreak and requisitioned by the British for the war.<ref>Livermore, p. 48</ref> Further planned expansion included ''Inflexible'' and ''Indomitable'', but when the secret negotiations to acquire them were leaked to the press, a major uproar erupted in Chile. The most visible dissension came from a bloc of officers in the navy, who publicly opposed any possible purchase and instead promoted a "New Navy" which would acquire submarines and aircraft. They argued that these weapons would cost less and give the country, and its lengthy coastline, better protection from external threats. The ships were not bought for reasons of cost, but neither were the aircraft its supporters had been hoping for.<ref>Somervell, pp. 393–394</ref> Both were sold for [[ship breaking|scrap]] on 1 December 1921.<ref name=r22/>
