USS ''Lorain'' (PF-97) was a United States Navy authorized for construction during World War II but cancelled before construction could begin. ''Lorain'' originally was authorized as a patrol gunboat named USS ''Vallejo'' with the hull number PG-205, but she was redesignated as a patrol frigate with the hull number PF-97 on 15 April 1943. She was renamed USS ''Lorain'' on 19 November 1943. Plans called for ''Lorain'' to be built under a Maritime Commission contract by the American Shipbuilding Company at Lorain, Ohio, as a Maritime Commission Type T. S2-S2-AQ1 hull. However, the contract for her construction for the U.S. Navy was cancelled on 11 February 1944 prior to the laying of her keel. On 7 February 1944, four days before ''Lorain''s cancellation, her incomplete sister ship, the ''Tacoma''-class patrol frigate USS ''Roanoke'' (PF-93) was renamed USS ''Lorain'' (PF-93). == References == * * (NavSource Online Frigate (PF) Index ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「USS Lorain (PF-97)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
