HMAS Adelaide

Scuttling HMAS Adelaide 13 April 2011

The HMAS Adelaide II (now known as Ex-HMAS ADELAIDE) was a long-range escort frigate with roles including area air defence, anti-submarine warfare, surveillance, reconnaissance, and interdiction. Built in the United States, HMAS Adelaide was commissioned in November 1980 and was the first of six Adelaide class guided-missile frigates to be delivered to the Royal Australian Navy.

The HMAS Adelaide participated in the 1990/91 Gulf War, in peacekeeping operations in East Timor in 1999 and 2006, and was deployed to the Arabian Gulf in 2001 and 2004. The ship was also involved in the high profile search and rescue of solo yachtsmen Thierry Dubois and Tony Bullimore from the Southern Ocean in 1997.
