The Dodsworth was retired because it was in the poorest state of the four ships and there was simply no money to bring her back to shape. Fortunately she had just been decommisioned when the Rademaker was accidently sprayed with gunfire by the ARA Sarandi in a Fraterno Execise, so many of the destroyed components where removed immediately from de Dodsworth to repair the Rademaker.

The Brazilian Navy (Marinha do Brasil) received four Type 22s, of which three are operational and one was decommissioned due to budget cuts. They are locally known as “Greenhalgh class”.

Operational:
F-46 GREENHALGH
F-48 BOSÍSIO
F-49 RADEMAKER

Decom: F-47 DODSWORTH

Dodsworth is decommed? Why is that? Are the other vessels decomming anytime soon as well? Looks like I need to go and do another edit on my scenario:)

There is plenty of T.22 text and dozens of images in the current issue of www.basemilitar.com.br , check it out! 🙂

I hope you enjoy it!
