HMS Ambuscade is the name given to eight Royal Navy ships between 1746 and 1993. The Ambuscades were frigates and destroyers, the fleet's workhorses in almost every major naval conflict - from being the eyes of the fleet in the Age of Sail to torpedo attacks at the Battle of Jutland in 1916 to shielding the carriers and transports in the Falklands War. They also patrolled the sea lanes and protected the convoys that fed the nation. This is the story of the ships and the seamen who crewed Ambuscade over nearly three centuries.
The last Ambuscade (a Type 21 frigate) was sold to Pakistan in 1993 and renamed PNS Tariq. In 2023, the Pakistan Navy kindly agreed to donate the ship to the charity Clyde Naval Heritage. The charity aims to bring her back to the Clyde, where she was built, within a museum focusing on the Falklands War. That project inspires this book, and all the profits will be donated to Clyde Naval Heritage.
