Don't know about the Brits . . .
But I think iran has another one . . and lost a third one back around 1988. Operation Praying Mantis. 'We' sunk part of their 'Navy' and obliterated a couple of 'observation platforms'.

This site seems to have a detailed description of things.

It's a frigate built by the British in 1969. I believe two sisterships are still in the British navy.
