Escort ship; escort vessel, английский
Frigate, английский
- 1. in the 17th century, any warship built for speed and maneuverability.
- In the royal navy, the next class vessel to a ship of the line; formerly a light nimble ship built for the purpose of sailing swiftly. the name was early known in the mediterranean, and applied to a long kind of vessel, navigated in that sea, with sails and oars. the english were the first who appeared on the ocean with these ships, and equipped them for war as well as for commerce. these vessels mounted from 28 to 60 guns, and made excellent cruisers. frigate is now apocryphal, being carried up to 7000 tons. the donkey-frigate was a late invention to serve patronage, and sprigs of certain houses were educated in them. they carried 28 guns, carronades, and were about 600 tons burden, commanded by captains who sometimes found a commander in a sloop which could blow him out of water.—frigate is also the familiar name of the membranous zoophyte, physalia pelagica, or portuguese man-of-war.
- [1] a small and speedy 17th century warship. [2] an 18th–19th century triple-masted, squarerigged, sixth to fourth-rate naval vessel, smaller and faster than a ship-of-the-line, carrying 20 to 60 guns usually on a single gun-deck but occasionally doublebanked. [3] a british world war ii escort vessel. [4] after world war ii the usn developed ships mid- fratricide 128 way in size between cruisers and destroyers. technically light cruisers, these vessels were briefly called frigates.
