“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.
My point was about sloppy journalism.
These are the people who say you should not have an AR-15 because “fully automatic weapons” are not needed for deer hunting.
It’s just sloppy.
Battleships are huge and, as far as I know, no nation today has an active battleship. Frigates, on the other hand, are very common and significantly smaller.
To say that Lebanon now has “battleships” is grossly inaccurate.
