In 1970, HMS ''Jupiter'' (Commander Ken Maun) deployed to the West Indies, a common duty for the RN, and which continues to the present day. In 1971, she joined Standing Naval Force Atlantic (STANAVFORLANT), a multi-national squadron of NATO. In 1972, ''Jupiter'' was again present in the West Indies again as part of STANAVFORLANT taking over the duty of HMS Naiad which had suffered a disabling breakdown. The following year, ''Jupiter'' took part in the Second Cod War. Jupiter then visited Africa on her way to the Far East and Pacific, and when she reached the Far East, ''Jupiter'' did a variety of duties, including performing fly-the-flag visits to numerous ports. ''Jupiter'' also visited Christchurch, New Zealand during the 1974 Commonwealth Games. She also visited the American naval base at Pearl Harbor where some propulsion problems were sorted out. HRH The Prince of Wales joined ''Jupiter'' as Ship's Communications Officer, in January 1974, and remained in ''Jupiter'' until her return to the UK later that year.
In late 1976, ''Jupiter'' joined the 7th Frigate Squadron as Captain F7 - Captain David G Armytage RN, succeeded in 1977 by Captain Geoffrey T J O Dalton RN. In early 1977, ''Jupiter'' led the 7th Frigate Squadron in the annual Group Deployment (Group 5 - January to May 1977, led by FOF2 in the cruiser HMS ''Tiger''), performing naval exercises and visiting the Caribbean and Rio de Janeiro and Salvador, Brazil in April 1977 and Funchal, Madeira. ''Jupiter'' also took part in the Fleet Reviewin Spithead on 28 June 1977, in celebration of HM the Queen's Silver Jubilee.〔Official Souvenir Programme, 1977. ''Silver Jubilee Fleet Review'', HMSO〕 After the Fleet Review, frigates of the 7th Frigate Squadron visited different ports in south Wales, ''Jupiter'' visiting Cardiff in early July 1977. Later that year, ''Jupiter'' became the Gibraltar Guard ship. Full details of the ship's programme from January 1977 to August 1978 are posted at (). ''Jupiter'' represented Great Britain in the Siege of Savannah 200th Anniversary in 1979.
''Jupiter'' also enjoyed fame on BBC TV, through starring as HMS ''Hero'' in the acclaimed drama series ''Warship''. All members of the crew were given HMS ''Hero'' cap tallies for filming purposes. The main ship used for filming was, however, HMS ''Phoebe''.
