Pro: easy to read.
Con: uses a line in the box for each time a ship is sold. When a lot of ships have been sold the table might be bigger than the table in the first format above.

[edit] abstracted footer
| Flower-class corvette |
| Table of Flower-class corvettes |
| Lists of corvettes of the Canadian Navy | Free French Navy | French Navy | Netherlands Navy | Norwegian Navy | Royal Navy | United States Navy | Yugoslavian Navy |
The table should have, say: launch-year, navy, name, [transfer-year, navy, name], end-year
Maybe two sets of lists?--lists of Flower-class corvettes of * Navy, and lists of [all] corvettes?
It might be best not to have a footer at all for such a large ship class but to just link to the Flower class corvette article and put lists of ships there.
