The six ‘Roofdier’ class ‘frigates’ were all built in the USA with MDAP funds. They were designed to escort slow coastal convoys in Channel and North Sea areas and were operated as a single squadron by the Royal Netherlands Navy. They proved useful for a number of peacetime tasks, especially fishery protection, and some were retained in this role in the North Sea until die mid-1980s. De Roofdier klasse was een serie van 6 kleine fregatten, of kust-escorteschepen, die van 1954 tot 1984 bij de Koninklijke Marine gevaren hebben. Korte tijd is er een zevende schip (de Lynx) met roofdieren naam in dienst geweest, maar deze was van een ander ontwerp.
