This ship classified - Training Frigate - Iraq had orderd in 1975 from the former Yugoslavia Split Sy, it probably entered the service before the start of the Iraq - Iran war, she was a sister ship of the Indonesian Navy Ki Hajar Dewantara F 364 training frigate, but with some differences. She was bombed in 1991, but was able to perform training missions after 1991. She was sunk in the U.S. air attacks during the U.S. invasion of Iraq in 2003. This ship was never arming with missiles as they training ship and used for only patrolling duty. This ship was not that Ibn Khaldun ship the -Academic Naval Ship - which built in Denmark. in fact that wrong mixing between the two. Their are two different ships.
