HMS Dulverton (M35) was a Hunt-class mine countermeasures vessel of the British Royal Navy, launched in 1982 and converted in 1997 into a patrol vessel. The ship was declared surplus to requirement and put on the MoD list for disposal in 2004. In 2008 she was bought by Lithuania. The war was officially over, but the work of dealing with Iraqi munitions continued both on land and at sea. During their occupation of Kuwait, the Iraqis had mined all the shipping lanes around Kuwait's ports. Saddam Hussein's army invaded Kuwait on August 2nd 1990 and were driven out by coalition forces after a five-week air war followed by a 100 hour ground war at the end of February 1991.
