USS Liddle (DE-206 / APD-60) was an American escort destroyer, the keel of which was laid in June 1943, launched in August 1943, and was completely completed in December of the same year. The total length of the ship at the time of launching was 93 m, width 11 m, with a standard displacement of about 1,750 tons. The maximum speed did not exceed 23 knots. The armament of the unit at the time of launching included: 3 76 mm guns, a quad 28 mm anti-aircraft cannon, 8 20 mm anti-aircraft cannons, a single Hedgehog launcher and 8 K-guns.

USS Liddle (DE-206 / APD-60) was one of the Buckley-class escort destroyers that were launched between 1943 and 1944. Units of this type were largely based on the design of the Evarts class, with the main change being the elongation of the hull and its redesign. Performance and sea prowess have also been slightly improved. As in the case of the Evarts class, Buckley-type units were primarily dedicated to carrying out tasks related to the protection of convoys and anti-submarine warfare. The USS Liddle (DE-206 / APD-60), belonging to this type, was constructed at the Charleston Navy Yard and shortly after entering service in February-June 1944, it was included in the cover of 3 Atlantic convoys. However, in the summer of 1944, it was reclassified as a fast transport ship, and its side designation was changed to APD-60. The unit in its new role was transferred to the Pacific and took part in operations in the Leyte Bay area in 1944. At the end of that year, it was damaged by a Japanese attack. However, the unit returned to service in February 1945. Until the end of the war with Japan, it carried out convoy tasks in the Pacific. After World War II, the unit was withdrawn from service, but was reinstated in 1950, remaining in it, with a short break in the years 1959-1961, until 1967.
