Re: HMS Ambuscade
i hope they find enough money to maintain her in good condition, this is always a real problem for preserved ships.

Re: HMS Ambuscade
Transfer of ex-PNS Tariq (ex-HMS Ambuscade) from Pakistan to Glasgow has delayed because ship kept in service longer than anticipated and
govts made last-minute changes to terms of transfer.
A generous deal to provide a lift ship for the voyage has been offered. Expect her to come home around April/May 2024.

Look at plans for new warship museum on the Clyde
Scotland is set to anchor a groundbreaking attraction on the River Clyde, promising to offer insight into the Falklands War and Glasgow’s storied shipbuilding heritage.
The ambitious project revolves around HMS Ambuscade, a frigate with a distinguished service record, which would voyage back to its birthplace from Pakistan for a new lease on life as a museum ship.
