Service history[]

On 17 March 2006 at 20:10 CET, Trondheim ran aground off Lines island in Sør-Trøndelag. No injuries among the 121-man crew were reported. The incident was reported from the ship itself, and at 20:30 it came loose again. Water flooded two compartments (paint storage and forward pump room) of the ship. The compartments were sealed and three ships were sent to assist the frigate.^[1] The frigate was towed to port in Bergen by the coast guard vessel NoCGV Tromsø.^[2]

HNoMS Trondheim was used after decommissioning as a target ship for the testing of Norway's 'Naval Strike Missile', and was hit on June 6, 2013.^[3]
