A port side view, taken from wide ahead of the beam, of the after part of the Royal Navy helicopter cruiser Tiger (1945) while she is berthed alongside a quay in Bombay harbour. The Seacat missile launcher, base of the mainmast and the hangar can be seen while a Royal Navy Land Rover is parked by the side of the brow. Local horse drawn gharries are standing on the quayside waiting to be hired by men from the cruiser. The cargo ship State of Tamilnadu (1959) is berthed astern of the Tiger (1945).
