Class context: Flower class corvette
The Flower class was the mass-production corvette that carried a disproportionate share of early Allied convoy-escort and anti-submarine work during the Battle of the Atlantic. Its commercial-vessel ancestry allowed rapid construction in smaller yards that could not build destroyers or larger escorts.
