ARA Santísima Trinidad (“Most Holy Trinity”) is a Type 42 destroyer of the Argentine Navy, the only one of her class built outside Britain. She participated in the 1982 Falklands War. In January 2013 the ship capsized and sank at her moorings in the Argentine naval base of Puerto Belgrano due to lack of maintenance, being refloated in December 2015. The navy’s plan to turn her into a museum ship was not realised, and in 2020, the Argentine president stated that the ship should be scrapped, though federal courts later blocked this.
