A ship that always fascinated me as I leafed through Janes Fighting Ships over the years was the frigate "Aconit".
en.m.wikipedia.org
This futuristic looking ship was originally intended to be a class of five.
French escort ships make interesting comparisons with the RN.
Aconit was the closest thing I can find to a Leander.
