The ship was also capable of carrying a Lynx helicopter for anti-submarine warfare and maritime surveillance. Throughout its service, the HMS Berwick participated in multinational exercises and patrols, contributing to maritime security and defense. The frigate was decommissioned in 2011 after nearly two decades of service. Following decommissioning, the ship was sold to the Chilean Navy and renamed Almirante Lynch.
