Nearest to camera type 12 frigate HMS Rhyl, F129 with guardship Chichester F59 ahead.
On the outer arm cruiser Tiger with both hangar doors open. There are a total of 7 ton class sweepers in shot, 5 were of the new patrol squadron, there is an unidentified landing ship on inner arm and extreme right what may be an Australian or New Zealand type 12 frigate.
This image is dated early september 1973 when Tiger was flag to a group which included Dreadnought, Dido, Hermione, Regent and Tidespring, none of which are in shot if in port at all.
