The Evarts class of destroyer escorts was designed to counter Germany's use of U-boats against convoys ferrying food, weapons, and ammunition from Western nations to England during wartime. This class comprised 105 vessels; eight were cancelled while the remaining ships numbered thirty-two were loaned to the British Royal Navy under lend-lease agreements, subsequently being reclassified as frigates in British service. These frigates were known collectively as the Captain Class and were christened using names of distinguished warship captains from the Napoleonic era.
