Type 31 and Arrowhead 140 offer adaptable internal volume for a future American frigate. That space makes the design family a contender without establishing it as the best choice. The prediction is that an American selection would move toward something closer to Arrowhead 160 in size. It remains a design preference and forecast, with no procurement decision established here.
