As soon as France actively entered the war in 1778, the Navy began building 32s again, emphasising that the 12pdr frigate was primarily intended for fleet and oceanic trade war roles. Alongside a revival of Williams’ Amazon class, there was to be a design by the younger joint Surveyor Edward Hunt. He had a reputation for being more adventurous than his senior colleague, but he was constrained to follow the same parameters as earlier 32-gun designs, and his resulting Active class was generally regarded as disappointing. Hunt then produced a lengthened version in 1780, six of which were built as the Andromeda class. This was to be the last entirely new design for 12pdr frigates produced for the Royal Navy. The new war demanded more powerful ships.
