HMS M32

M32 was a monitor of the M29 class of the Royal Navy in the First World War.

The availability of ten 6 inch Mk XII guns that were intended for the battleships of the Queen Elizabeth Class, the Admiralty initiated in 1915 for the procurement of five monitors a scaled M15 class. This was designed to accommodate 9.2 inch guns. The ships were ordered in March 1915 at Harland & Wolff in Belfast, but subcontracted the job for M32 and M33 to the adjacent yard Workman Clark Limited as sub-contractor. The M32 was laid in March at Kiel, launched from the dock on 22 May 1915, and put into service in June of the same year.

After the commissioning of the HMS M32 was deployed to the Mediterranean and remained there until March 1919 in use. From May to September 1919, she supported troop movements of the British and the White Army in the White Sea, before returning to Britain.

On January 29, 1920, the HMS M32 was sold for use as an oil tanker and renamed Ampat.
