The former Royal Navy type 21 frigate HMS Ambuscade, which served in the Falkland's war and served the RN from 1975 to 1993, before being sold to Pakistan, where she served as the PNS Tariq, will be returned to Glasgow upon decommissioning, where she will be based on the Clyde as a museum ship.
The museum will celebrate her shared RN / PN history and the Falkland's war.
No date as yet, but it's only recently been announced.
