South African Frigate Portsmouth

Post by tankbuster »

SAS Amatola, a frigate from the South African Navy, will sail into Portsmouth this Sunday as part of a key series of commemorations.

She carries a Lynx, whether she'll have it on is any ones guess

Here its today. The ship goes out tomorrow at 0810 and back in at 1500, so if it stays on top should get decent views from Portsmouth or Gosport

Sadly it is the same one that appeared at a Farnborough show some years ago, otherwise I would have made the trip yesterday.
