List of French modern frigates

The list of French modern frigates covers ships acquired or built between 1940 and present. This list is not comprehensive. In France, "destroyers" are called "contre-torpilleurs" or "first rank frigates"; hence, destroyer-size ships might be listed here. During the 1940s, frigate-size ships were called "torpilleurs".
