The Type 22 is a dedicated sub hunter and a bloody good one at that, lacking a long range SAM they put the Seawolf on it, each launcher has 6 rounds and originally had to be loaded by hand. The Seawolfs designed to shoot down missiles and was probably put on the type 22 as they would be hunting Soviet SSGN capable of launching a missile at them and they needed something better than the Sea Dart which is a bomber interceptor at its heart.
The Type 22 is big to be seaworthy, she's meant to fight in the Atlantic and thats no millpond. They also have large aviation facilities and thats always increases size and they are designed to be quite comfy for crews, bigger quarters etc.
