But the brass scuttled the 25-year-old blonde’s carnal capers.

Dowsett has now been convicted of sexually assaulting both men and women comrades on the ship and has been caged for 18 months in a British military prison. Officials added that Dowsett engaged in a “disgraceful” intimidation campaign.

In addition, she was dismissed from the naval service after a military judge branded her a “predator.”

‘Bisexual tendencies’

Court heard that her molesting modus operandi was to target new crew members aboard Type 45 destroyer HMS Dauntless. Officials heard that the sultry sailor had “bisexual tendencies.”

Among her antics: She reportedly groped the men sailors by their crotches and stroked their arms on multiple occasions. In addition, she made wildly inappropriate comments such as, “I like my coffee how I like my men, big and strong.”

For women crew members, Dowsett would smack their bottoms and squeeze their breasts, telling them: “Do you like that baby girl?”

At a court-martial earlier this year, the sex-crazed sailor targeted and took advantage of the new swabbies who she thought would not report her. Superiors called her a “cancer on the ship,” The UK Sun reported.

‘Extremely intimidating character’

But it wasn’t just underlings that the buxom seafarer ravaged. One victim spoke of her embarrassment of being sexually molested by a sailor of a lower rank.

“I shared a mess with her and I couldn’t talk about the incident because she would hear,” the victim said. “I was also embarrassed – not only that I had been sexually assaulted by a woman but a woman who was of a lower rank than me and who should look up to me.”

The victim added: “She was an extremely intimidating character. She would scream and shout at people. I had so many sleepless nights when she was aboard. She had unrestricted access to me and I honestly believed she would physically attack me.

“I thought if she knew I reported it, her anger would have been uncontrollable.”

A male victim told Bulford Military Court in Wiltshire that his encounters with the nympho naval member left him feeling “anxious.”

‘I didn’t tell her to get off’

“I felt guilty that I let it happen but I didn’t tell her to get off. I was assaulted again in the hangar,” the sailor testified. “She did this to me in front of two males I work with which made me feel embarrassed. I stood there in disbelief.”

Dowsett was convicted on six charges of sexual assault.

But court heard that the saucy sailor had allegedly recently been diagnosed with autism, which may have caused Dowsett to misunderstand or ignore boundaries, causing “social exploitation, interpersonal misunderstanding and difficulty navigating social and institutional environments”.

However, Assistant Judge John Atwill stated her lurid actions were “acts that any person would know are unacceptable”.

The judge said: “Service personnel have little choice over who they work and live with. The confines of work in ships brings them into close proximity with work colleagues. The use of that proximity to abuse and dominate others violates their autonomy and drives division into the teams in which they work.

“Your behaviour towards them was disgraceful. You upset, frightened and disconcerted them and you had no regard for the impact of your behaviour.

“You were a predator in that ship, and seemed to target newer members.”

Dowsett reportedly enlisted in 2019 and served as a chef.
