HMS Active, a Royal Navy frigate which survived active duty in the Falklands War, has met its end during a Pakistan navy drill.
The Type 21 frigate - decommissioned by the Royal Navy in 1994 and sold to Pakistan which renamed her the PNS Shah Jahan - was blown up in a training exercise on January 12.
Video released by the Pakistan Navy showed the ship being struck by a torpedo in the North Arabian Sea before splitting in half and disappearing beneath the waves.
'So sad,' one Twitter user wrote. 'Served on her from 89-91 and saw her in Bahrain in 2013. Great memories of my time onboard.'
