	Oliver Hazard Perry class frigate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The USS McInerney (FFG 8), an Oliver Hazard Perry class frigate.
		The Oliver Hazard Perry class of frigates were designed by the U.S. Navy in the 1970s as general-purpose escort vessels capable enough to do most jobs adequately, yet cheap enough to be bought in large quantities.
		It is also rumored that the Mk 75 3 inch guns is to be removed from the Perry class, also for cost and utility reasons.

	Frigate (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-07)
		During the age of sail, a frigate was a sailing vessel designed for speed,with a flush gun deck carrying 24 to 44 guns, used as scouts attached to larger fleets, as commerce raiders, for blockade duty, and for the protectionof convoys.
		With the introduction of steam and steel warships frigates as a class ofwarship passed out of use until World War II when they were reintroduced bythe British as an antisubmarine escort vessel larger than a corvette but smallerthan a destroyer.
		The US Navy intends to replace all existing frigates with the Littoral Combat Ship, of which as many as 60 may be built.

	Oliver Hazard Perry
		In the War of 1812 he was commissioned to build, equip, and man a fleet at Erie, Pa. On Sept. 10, 1813, Perry's fleet left Put-in-Bay, Ohio, and met a slightly inferior British force.
		The victory, which made Perry a national hero, gave the United States control of Lake Erie and helped pave the way for Harrison's victory in the battle of the Thames River, in which Perry participated.
		A memorial to Perry at Put-in-Bay, built 1912–15, was made a national monument in 1936.
