Many naval battles of World War II were fought around convoys, including:
* [[Convoy PQ 16]], May 1942
* [[Convoy PQ 17]], June–July 1942
* [[Convoy PQ 18]], September 1942
* [[Operation Pedestal]], August 1942
* The [[Naval Battle of Guadalcanal]], November 1942
* The [[Battle of the Barents Sea]], December 1942
* The [[Battle of the Bismarck Sea]], March 1943

The convoy prefix indicates the route of the convoy. For example, 'PQ' would be Iceland to Northern Russia and 'QP' the return route.
