Light Frigates are a subclass of Frigates which occupy a unique niche, set apart from both similarly-sized Corvettes and larger Frigates. They are fast platforms that are large enough to use phasers, and usually have a front bridge to most effectively utilize their Plasma Cannon primary weapons; however, they're smaller than their Attack Frigate and Heavy Frigate cousins and can thus dodge enemy capital ship attacks. Light frigates are primarily tuned to counter large capital ships like Destroyers, being able to conduct hit-and-runs to whittle down slower targets. Unlike most ship classes, they aren't particularly good at "punching down" to eliminate targets immediately smaller than themselves.
