WORLD OF WARSHIPS HMS BRISTOL TYPE 82 DESTROYER

Wallpaper Description:

HMS Bristol (D23) is a Type 82 destroyer, the only vessel of her class to be built for the Royal Navy. Originally intended as the first of a class of large destroyers to escort the CVA-01 aircraft carriers projected to come into service in the early 1970s, Bristol turned out to be a unique ship: the rest of the class were cancelled with the CVA-01 carriers in the 1966 Strategic Defence Review. Following a long career which included the Falklands War, she was converted into a training ship in 1987 and continues to serve in that role.

Armament: Mk 8 4 1/2in gun, Ikara ASW, Sea Dart AAGM, Mk 10 ASW mortars, aft deck can accommodate small helicopter.
