This article intertwines with cruiser and frigate. I haven't yet decided if there's a reasonable single "fast attack craft" to include classic torpedo and motor gunboats, as well as missile boats. I'm also not sure, given the confusion in the three main vessel names, whether there needs to be an additional category that would include such things as oceangoing corvettes (e.g., Israeli Sa'ar), the latest incarnation of the Littoral Combat Ship, etc.

Indeed, I have not yet started frigate. Expect much back-and-forth among cruiser, destroyer, and frigate even in the early drafts. Howard C. Berkowitz 12:06, 19 July 2008 (CDT)

This is very fun to read & well written. I read half of it. (Chunbum Park 21:27, 20 June 2009 (UTC))

Cruiser actually approaches comedy, when the U.S. Navy seemed to lose its mind about what to call things.

I will get current Korean ships listed! Howard C. Berkowitz 21:42, 20 June 2009 (UTC)

Any image sources for non-US ships, especially historical?

I can cheat with the current Japanese Kongo-class, as they are Burke-class copies. Howard C. Berkowitz 00:55, 22 June 2009 (UTC)
