HNLMS De Ruyter was one of two Tromp-classfrigates and was built at the KM de Schelde in Vlissingen. The keel laying took place on 22 December 1971 and the launching on 9 March 1974. The ship was put into service on 3 June 1976.[1]
The De Ruyter and the frigates Callenburgh, Jan van Brakel, Van Kinsbergen and the replenishment ship Poolster departed from Den Helder on 13 January 1986 for a trip to the Far East to show the flag and promote Dutch trade. The ships returned on 19 June.[2]
During the mid-90s the ship was part off Standing Naval Forces Mediterranean (STANAVFORMED) and helped to enforce an embargo for the coast of Yugoslavia.[3]
