www.gradesaver.com/classicnotes/titles/snowfalling/terms.htmlPerhaps this will help. When wood-and-sail warships were replaced in the late 1880's, the term "frigate" was dispensed with. They were replaced by destroyers, escorts, and corvettes, but the basic idea was the same. The fleet could not be everywhere at once, nor could it be spared to protect merchant shipping, so smaller and less-powerful ships were needed which could be built in larger numbers and scattered all over the sea. In the War of 1812, US frigates were simply better than those of the British, but their navy had more of them, and that made a difference. The term was revived in the late 1900's to describe smaller warships for patrol and escort missions, but they are not able to fight enemy warships with success, except for enemy frigates. The US Navy Perry class and Spanish Navy Christina class are good examples of modern frigates. They have weapons for anti-submarine and anti-aircraft now, but the missions they carry out are the same as in the age of sail. They patrol the seas, guard shipping lanes from pirates, show the flag where a country wants it shown, and provide escort for larger warships and merchant ships in the event of war.

Frigates float because of the principle of buoyancy. The design of a frigate ensures that the weight of the ship is distributed in a way that it displaces enough water to generate an upward force equal to or greater than its weight. This allows the frigate to float on the water's surface.
