Fort Victoria was ordered from Harland and Wolff in 1986, and was launched in 1990. However, various problems with the construction of the vessel meant it was not delivered until 1993, three years after originally planned. In 1998, the ship was fitted with the Phlanax CIWS. The vessel took part in Operation Telic during early 2003. Fort Victoria
