HMS Osiris
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
HMS Osiris (S13) was an Oberon class submarine in the Royal Navy and sold to the Canadian Forces for spare parts. It is the third ship to bear this name.
Laid down in 1962 at Vickers-Armstrongs at Barrow and launched in 1964.
In May 2005, the Halifax Chronicle-Herald announced that the Royal Canadian Navy was looking to sell Ojibwa for scrap metal, along with three other Canadian Oberons. The RCN's disposal co-ordinator stated that the submarines were not in suitable condition to be used as museum ships, and predicted that each submarine would sell for between C$50,000 and C$60,000.
