Ibn Khaldoum
Ibn Khaldoum was later renamed as Ibn Marjid.[1] She was mainly used for training and transport during Iran–Iraq War and still operational in 1988, despite several Iranian claims that she has been sunk.[2] In February 1991 she was severely damaged, albeit still afloat, as the result of Operation Desert Storm.[1] Ibn Khaldoum survived the Gulf War, but with its capability reduced as she lacked spare parts for her Roll-Royce engines.[3] She was sunk in the United States air attacks during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003.[4]
