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 andgovts 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.

Social Value in Defence Procurement and HMS Ambuscade
The UK Government’s introduction of the Cabinet Office Social Value Model in 2021 marked a significant shift in public sector procurement.
Building on the Social Value Act 2012, this model requires suppliers to demonstrate how their work will contribute to broader social, economic, and environmental goals.
This approach focuses on tackling economic inequality, combating climate change, and promoting equal opportunity, fundamentally changing how government contracts are awarded.
