CAM ladja (ang. Catapult Aircraft Merchant ship) so bile britanske trgovske ladje iz 2. svetovne vojne, ki so bile opremljene s katapultom za letala. Uporabljale so se do prihoda spremljevalnih letalonosilk. CAM ladja je s pomočjo raketnega katapulta izstrelila lovca Hawker Hurricane, znan tudi kot "Hurricat" ali "Catafighter". Namenjeni so bili prestrezanju Focke-Wulf Fw 200 Kondor. CAM ladje so sicer prevažale tudi tovor.
