[1] is wikipedia:Kaibōkan. As the article said, The term escort ship is used by the United States Navy to describe this category of Japanese ships.And when you look at wikipedia:List of hull classifications, you can see an entry "DE: Destroyer Escort (World War II, later became Ocean Escort)". On the other hand, for PF, it said PF: World War II frigate, based on British River class.

For [8], simply read Glossary

For [12], superdreadnoughts is a 1910s concept for battleship, which the hull classification symbol for battleships before 1920s is B. Therefore it is currently used as the symbol for superdreadnoughts over various place.

For [15], I don't think there are any indication that it is referring to oiler instead of transport ship in general.
