HMS Arrow was a Type 21 frigate of the Royal Navy.
Arrow was active during the Falklands War of 1982, where she provided naval gunfire support (NGFS) and rescued most of the surviving crew from HMS Sheffield. She was sold to Pakistan on 1 March 1994 and renamed PNS Khaibar.
Built by Yarrow Shipbuilders Ltd, Glasgow, Scotland, she was completed with Exocet launchers in 'B' position. Arrow was commissioned on 28 July 1976.
By the mid-1980s Arrow was suffering from cracking in her hull. Much of this had first arisen during the Falklands conflict, when engineers were obliged to weld steel plates and girders to parts of the ship where cracks were opening up in the aluminium superstructure. After the war, she was taken in for refitting, with a large steel plate being welded down each side of the ship. At the same time modifications were made to reduce hull noise.
The vessel continued in service until 1994, and was decommissioned and removed from the fleet on 1 March that year.
Following decommissioning Arrow was transferred to Pakistan and renamed PNS Khaibar. The Exocet missile system was not transferred to Pakistan and Khaibar had her obsolete Sea Cat missile launcher removed. A Phalanx CIWS was later fitted in place of the Sea Cat launcher. SRBOC chaff launchers and 20 mm and 30 mm guns were fitted. Khaibar remains in service with the Pakistan Navy, who purchased from the United Kingdom Government all six surviving Type 21 frigates of the eight originally built (two were lost in the Falklands).

Here you can see the arrow in flight. You have to look real close to see a blue arrow with green flights. It's moving so it's blurry. View the original size to see it best. See the note to see the approximate location of the arrow.
An arrow that point toward fresness,
Light that falls for reasons unknown,
Yet we call it light, the light of hope
