HMS MONMOUTH
Scrapped
On April 5, 2025, the 'HMS Monmouth' has departed Portsmouth for the final time, en route to Breakeers in Aliaga, marking the end of her service. She served the Royal Navy for nearly three decades, undertaking missions across the globe, from the Antarctic to the Persian Gulf. Decommissioned on June 30, 2021, HMS 'Monmouth' was deemed surplus to the Navy’s requirements due to her material state and the high costs associated with refitting her for continued service. She did not undergo a mid-life upgrade, which left her uneconomical to repair. Stripped of her weapons, sensors, and other equipment, she was laid up and used briefly as a harbour training ship before being moved to Portsmouth. In 2025, HMS 'Monmouth' was sold to Turkish naval scrapyard companies for recycling. She was towed from Portsmouth, accompanied by tugs, to begin her final journey to the Leyal scrapyard in Aliaga. The tow was set to take three weeks. Report with photo: https://shipsmonthly.com/news/hms-monmouth-heads-to-the-breakers/
