HMS Boxer was built as a Landing Ship, Tank at Harland and Wolff. Launched in December 1942 and commissioned the following April, she saw service as part of the Allied invasion of Italy. In 1944, she was refitted as an air defence control ship, then as a radar training ship in 1946. She was placed in reserve in 1956, and scrapped at Barrow-in-Furness in 1958.
