Following a change in command on 9 February, 2016[2], Hawk was decommissioned[3] in October 2016 and went to Active Reserve status until her recommissioning in First (Home) Fleet on 19 August 2017, when CAPTJG Paul McPherson upgraded from HMS Hellhound, bringing 17 members aboard his new command.
On 19 January, 2021, Hawk was transferred from an unaffiliated slot in Home Fleet back to the newly-reinstated Sidemore Station, this time as its flagship.[4]
