Original Ship

The Knox ( FF ) Class
The Knox FF class was the result of congressional opposition to mounting costs of the Brooke FFG class Missile Frigate after only six Brooke class ships were built. Accordingly their mission was altered to ASW escort from that of a general escort. The original designation of the Knox class was Destroyer Escort being changed later to Frigate but retaining the original hull number.
