For the 32-gun Amazon-class frigate:

The Amazon class frigates of 1773, made up of 32-gun fifth rates with a main battery of 12-pounder guns, it comprised eighteen ships; the Amazon, Ambuscade and Thetis were launched in 1773; the second batch - Cleopatra, Amphion, Orpheus, Juno, Success, Iphigenia, Andromache, Syren, Iris, Greyhound, Meleager, Castor, Solebay, Terpsichore and Blonde - were launched in 1779 to 1787.



For the French 74-gun SOL:

For the British 74-gun SOL, check this link for HMS Bellona:

There are other classes mentioned that are almost identical to Bellona and you click on each one of those for a lists that include the models and their sisters.



The French Concorde-class frigate had only three ships in the class. Therefore, all three are modeled along with the captured Concorde.

Concorde's sisters were the Hermione and Courageuse. Hermione was wrecked in 1793, while Courageuse was captured during the Siege of Toulon, but was retaken in the fall of the city to the French. She was retaken by the British while sailing in the Mediterranean in 1799 and taken into the navy.

Ed, I have one--or most of one, running down the Temeraires is a NIGHTMARE.

PM me your email and I'll send you what I have so far tomorrow, including Victory's near-sisters and the Humphreys 44 trio.
