Whitby
Class Frigate Type 12. HMS Blackpool, Eastbourne, Scarborough, Tenby,
Torquay, and Whitby. were the first frigate to have the "V" form
hull which is certainly the most outstanding small warship design of the
20th century. The evolutionally design made it possible to be driven
in head sea with the usual slamming which occurs with conventional
destroyers of the time. Each Frigate cost 3.5 million pounds.
and the first ship was completed in May 1956 HMS Torquay.
