One from my collection of scratch built warships
HMS Manchester.
Sheffield Class Type 42 Destroyers
The principle role of the Sheffield Class Type 42 destroyers is to provide area air defence for a task force and since their introduction into service they have constituted the fleet's principle anti-air warfare capability. However they also have the secondary roles of confronting surface and anti-submarine targets. A total of sixteen ships were built between 1972 and 1985, although two were tragically lost in the Falklands War.
