Ah, those are dinky little coastal patrol boats, nothing like the ships 
we were talking about.

An SC is 85 tons, less than 1/10th the size of the 940 ton Flower Class 
Corvette, which was pretty much the smallest real ocean-going combat 
vessel. The Destroyer Escorts which were the US's primary antisubmarine 
ship in similar service were about 1/3 larger at around 1400 tons, 
although later classes would grow as large as 1900 tons in the post-war era.
