Hull classification symbol
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.
