In the late 1940's - early 1950's the armament was modified by
the removal
of the star-shell mounting, the removal of the twin
Bofors and all Oerlikon mountings, and in the installation of 5 single
Bofors Mk.7 and 2 Mk.2 STAAG mountings aft. The depth charge
throwers
and rails were replaced by a single Squid
mounting. |
