300px-ARASantísimaTrinidadD-2.jpegOn 21 January 2013, Santísima Trinidad suffered a broken valve which resulted in the flooding of several compartments. The flooding was beyond the capacity of the pumps and the crew was evacuated. The ship took on a 50 degree list and sank at her moorings. Decisions are yet to be made on re-floating the vessel.[25][26] Santísima Trinidad was in poor condition before she sank; the ship had been cannibalized to keep her sister Herculesoperational, as the British refused to sell the Argentines spare parts after the Falklands War.


Bahahaha 30 years afterthe war and the British are still sinking argi ships. #REKT

Yea you got me to read Wiki about fate of ship

Construction began in 1973, but commissioning was long delayed by an improvised limpet mine attack carried out by divers of the guerrilla organization Montoneros on 22 August 1975. The date was chosen as a retaliation for the massacre at Trelew three years before, when a number of leftist militants were executed inside Almirante Zar air base, operated by the navy. The raid was allegedly planned in imitation of Operation Frankton, a British commando attack against German shipping in Bordeaux during World War II. The attack involved the use of a folding boat, frogmen and a limpet mine with 375 lb (170 kg) of explosives, which was laid on the river bed below the destroyer after a failed attempt to attach the device to the hull. The ship's bottom and electronics suffered severe damage, and completion was suspended for a year as a result of the attack.

> Bordeaux
