HMS Yarmouth (F101)

HMS Yarmouth (F101)

HMS "Yarmouth" (F101) was the first Modified Type 12 frigate of the "Rothesay" class to enter service with the Royal Navy. From her commissioning in 1960, she performed in numerous roles, including the Falklands War. On 13 July 1965, "Yarmouth" collided with the submarine HMS "Tiptoe", 10 miles South East of Portland Bill. "Tiptoe" survived, but had to be repaired at the yards of Cammell Laird.

She was finally decommissioned in 1986. In 1987 she was towed out to the North Atlantic and sunk by weapons from HMS "Manchester" in that year's SinkEx.
