Hull classification symbol
US naval inventory classification system / From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
This article is about the U.S. Navy, U.S. Coast Guard, and NOAA systems. For the similar system used by Canadian Forces, see Hull classification symbol (Canada).
The United States Navy, United States Coast Guard, and United States National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) use a hull classification symbol (sometimes called hull code or hull number) to identify their ships by type and by individual ship within a type. The system is analogous to the pennant number system that the Royal Navy and other European and Commonwealth navies use.
