e/Fourth-rate

Information
has gloss	eng: In the British Royal Navy, a Fourth Rate was, during the first half of the 18th century, a ship of the line mounting from 46 up to 60 guns. While the number of guns stayed subsequently in the same range up until 1817, after 1756 the ships of 50 guns and below were considered too weak to stand in the line of battle, although the remaining 60-gun ships were still classed as fit to be ships of the line. However, the 50-gun ship continued to be used largely during the Seven Years' War, and during the time of the American Revolution a whole new group of 50-gun ships was constructed, not for the battlefleet, but to meet the needs of combat in the shallow waters off North America where the larger ships found it difficult to sail. But by the French Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, even this function was in retreat, and few 50s were built.

Japanese
has gloss	jpn: 18世紀前半のイギリス海軍において4等艦（fourth-rate）とは46門から60門の砲を積んだ戦列艦をさす分類であった。この砲門数は1817年まで変更されなかったが、1756年以降は50門以下の軍艦を戦列に加えるのは危険だと考えられるようになった。しかし50門艦は北アメリカ沿岸の大型艦の活動が難しい海域での戦闘では依然有効だったので7年戦争やアメリカ独立戦争の間も建造が続けられた。しかしフランス革命からナポレオン戦争にかけての時期にはその任務でも使われなくなり、同様に60門艦も64門3等艦に吸収されて消えていった。少数の50門艦は船団護衛や遠隔海域の旗艦に使用され、また一部は砲を装備せずに兵員輸送船として使われた。
