HMS Bristol departing Portsmouth by Ivan Berryman. \u003cp\u003e The only Type 82 destroyer to be built for the Royal Navy, HMS Bristol (D23) was designed for a role that never materialised, the rest of her class being cancelled when the intended CVA-01 class of aircraft carriers that she was intended to escort and defend were themselves cancelled in the late 1960s.  Bristol enjoyed a long and varied career however, her size making her a suitable flagship for \u003ci\u003eOperation Ocean Safari 81\u003c\/i\u003e before going in for a refit and joining the Royal Navy Task Force in the South Atlantic during the Falklands Campaign.  Paid off in 1991, she is now moored permanently at Whale Island, Portsmouth, as a training ship.  HMS Bristol is depicted here slipping quietly out of Portsmouth Harbour in the 1970s. \u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLimited edition of 10 giclee canvas prints.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Size 30 inches x 20 inches (71cm x 51cm)\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Military Aviation Art Prints","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54134996697421,"sku":null,"price":400.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0810\/5449\/9149\/files\/2026NEWdhm6333.jpg?v=1781872153","url":"https:\/\/militaryaviationartprints.com\/products\/hms-bristol-departing-portsmouth-by-ivan-berryman-gs","provider":"Military Aviation Art Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
