How to sell or replace a frigate?

I have a very weak frigate with only 1 star. I learned that

...the frigates themselves have 5-star ratings depending on their class and traits. It is recommended that the total star rating of your frigate team is at least 1 star higher than the difficulty of the expedition. If the team rating is equal to the expedition rating there is a chance that the frigates will be damaged, and if the team rating is lower than the expedition, frigate damage is very likely. Also note that lower class frigates are more likely to be damaged than higher class ones. If a damaged frigate continues its mission and gets damaged again, it will be destroyed and cannot be recovered.

Because my frigate always return damaged and only waste a lot of resources, I want to sell it or replace it with a better one.

How can I sell (or replace) a selected frigate?

According to the hiring section of the page you have linked in your question:

Dismiss unwanted frigates using the middle mouse button from the Manage Fleet panel.

In the control room for your freighter, there is a central command station that you can manage your fleet with. From there, you should be able to do the above and dismiss your frigate (there should be a similar control on console versions of the game as well). There is no warning indication for dismissing the frigate, and you do not getting anything back either.

To get another frigate, simply find another freighter fleet and approach it. You will see a bunch of green icons appear on your screen indicating frigates available for purchase. Once you get close enough, establish communications with the frigate in question and negotiate from there. You can have a max of 30 at a time.
