But ships to use would be destroyers, and maybe 1-2 LC if you can spare them (eg if you are england/usa/japan).

A major like those mentioned before would use scouts of 10destroyers 2LC while the remaining des/lc would remain with your strike fleet to screen.

a smaller nation would use proportionally smaller patrols, so if you have a fleet of 2CA 2BB 6HC 6LC 20D 20S you would probably have only use 3 destroyers for your patrols.

scale up it based on your size, but nothing above LC should be used as its generally a waste and your goal is detection + SPEED.
