A frigate is not a battleship.

Reguardless battleship or frigate they are targets. Israel has things in the air and underwater that eat things.

It sure isn’t. I suppose the author meant to say “warship” instead of “battleship”. It’s just inexcusably sloppy reporting.

I suspect something was lost in translation.

It won’t be any kind of a ship when the Israelis get done with it.

A half stick of dynamite is not a whole pack of full sticks. You still shouldn’t hand it to the village psycho.

A patrol boat armed with a 20mm cannon and two .50 cal M2s is not a frigate, nor a battleship.

“A frigate is not a battle ship.”

So what’s your point. Frigates are a warship with a mixed armament, generally heavier than a destroyer (in the US Navy) and of a kind originally introduced for convoy escort work.
