There have been six ships named Achilles, none of which appear to have sunk.

The most famous of these six was the HMS Achilles of the Royal Navy. It was built between 1905 and 1907. The ship served during World War 1, and sunk the German ship, Leopard. She was reclassified to a training ship in 1918, and was disassembled (scrapped) in 1921.

What ships did Prince Philip serve on that were sunk?

Prince Philip served on several ships during his naval career, including HMS Valiant and HMS Whelp. HMS Whelp, a light cruiser, was present during World War II and participated in various operations, but it was not sunk. However, HMS Valiant was heavily damaged by air attacks and eventually scuttled in 1948, though it did not sink during Philip's service. Thus, while he served on ships that faced significant combat, neither was sunk while he was aboard.
