This broad task can be accomplished through, among other things, the escort of merchant ships (sometimes of individual ships, for a specific purpose), coastal sea control, harbor defense, and mine countermeasure ships.
Although not equipped for high-end naval combat, these ships are well suited for low-intensity missions like coastal sea control and maritime interception, in recent years becoming relatively more important in support of DOD naval missions.
