#23Corvette
Keys: Corvette

The corvette was designed as a ship with powerful armament, but as fast and light as possible.

As a rule, corvettes were used as patrol vessels and as auxiliary warships.
#24frigate
Keys: frigate
A frigate is a three-masted warship with full sailing armament and one or two (open and closed) gun decks.

#25line ship
Keys: line ship
A line ship is a class of sailing three-masted wooden warships. Sailing line ships were characterized by the following features: full displacement from 500 to 5500 tons, armament, including from 30-50 to 135 guns in board ports, the number of crew was from 300 to 800 people at full manning. Line ships were built and used for sea battles using line tactics. The line ship represents a formidable force. Armed with the most powerful and long-range guns, with a very strong hull, it can successfully confront any ship at sea and destroy coastal fortifications.
#26Manowar
Keys: Manowar, Man of war
Manowar (Man of war) - a naval ship armed with cannons and propelled by sails.

They were often called the largest of the line ships. The guns on them were located in 3 rows along the sides, on special gun decks. They were built similar to galleons, but had a displacement of up to 5000 tons and carried up to 120 guns.

The opinion that Man of war is any particular class of ship is erroneous, as manowars were most often called ordinary warships, whether it was a line ship or a survey sloop. But the term was first used in relation to the Spanish galleons of the Great Armada. Unfortunately, the huge size and displacement of the man-o-war limits its use to large naval battles and bombardment of forts.
