Surely this is HMS SHEFFIELD, the RN type 22 frigate?

Hi you are right it is the type 22 frigate hms sheffield.
I was serving on her when that photo was taken, it is the 1st time I have seen it.Would love to know it's origin as we were alone on this trip, apart from a USSR fast attack boat that tried to keep up with us when they found out we were there.
