Difference between Anti-submarine warfare and Frigate

Anti-submarine warfare vs. Frigate

Anti-submarine warfare (ASW, or in older form A/S) is a branch of underwater warfare that uses surface warships, aircraft, or other submarines to find, track and deter, damage, or destroy enemy submarines. A frigate is any of several types of warship, the term having been used for ships of various sizes and roles over the last few centuries.
