   Memory Alpha  Frigates    
      
   A frigate was a starship classification applied to the smallest starships   
   fielded by a galactic state. Frigates were designed to be fast and protected   
   larger vessels while conducting general service missions. Frigates can be   
   further typified as support    
   frigates, fast frigates, light frigates, battle frigates, commando frigates   
   and heavy frigates. (Decipher RPG  module: Narrator's Guide; ST video game:   
   Starfleet Command)    
      
   Benjamin Sisko once commented that Starfleet frigates of the 23rd century   
   were: "power packed ships". (DS9  novelization: The Search)
