Would be interesting if all British ships in future are themed as chess pieces. There doesn't seem to be a chess piece for an archer like Ark Royal though we could have battleship queens and destroyer pawns maybe.

You could count the Rook as the archer piece. In shatranj, the precursor to modern chess, the rook piece represented the war chariot which usually has an archer as the main combatant.
