Constructed using a Class:5 hull, the UPF Frigate is the mainstay of the UPF Spacefleet. The vessel displaces 1600 tons and is staffed by up to 30 crew members. The Frigate is most commonly used for patrol and escort duty, but thanks to speed and integrity they are flexible enough for just about any mission UPF High Command can dish out. Some of the larger planetary militias incorporate a Frigate for use as a capital ship. Thanks to versatility and a proven record, this design won't be phased out anytime soon.

The UPF Frigate is currently available in two configurations, the Type:CC (close combat) or the Type:FE (Fleet/Escort), with the only differences between the two being the gun battery systems and ICM capacities.
