WWII definition confirmed in CFP 152, the Canadian Forces Seamanship Manual. Corresponded to US Navy "destroyer escort" of the day. After WWII, Can. Navy adopted the term destroyer escort for newly-constructed vessels. Nowadays, the Canadian, U.S. and British navies all use the term frigate to mean a warship slightly smaller than and generally not as powerfully armed as a destroyer (although there is some overlap). With the possible exception of the DDH-280 class ships (classified as destroyers by Jane’s Fighting Ships), all of Canada’s present day "destroyers" are actually frigates, the word destroyer being used as a short form of "destroyer escort", which was their original classification.  5, record 5, English, - frigate
