Frigates
are used to transport troops and fighters to war zones.
During combat operations, frigates are used for planetary
assault and to provide covering fire for fighters as well as
larger fleet units. When military action is not
required, the vessels are used for general support duties
throughout federation space. The Federation Starfleet
operates 6 Frigate Classes; Knox, Victory, Apollo, Proxima,
Tomahawk and Renegade.
