How would larger treaty destroyers change the size of Hunt-class destroyer escorts and Royal Navy sloops?
Short answerBoth would grow, with sloops perhaps around 1,600-1,800 tons and Hunts following the larger sloop-derived hull.
NotesTreaty categories influence more than the ships explicitly named in the limit. If destroyers grow toward 2,000 to 3,000 tons, Royal Navy sloops can also expand because their tonnage is linked to destroyer tonnage. Sloops might reach around 1,600 to 1,800 tons in that environment. Hunt-class destroyer escorts would follow because their design took a sloop hull and adapted it for the destroyer-escort role.
