The Capital Ships of a Navy are its most important warships; and are traditionally much larger than other naval vessels. A capital ship is generally a leading or a primary ship in a naval fleet.
UEEN Capital ships designations:Template:RSIref
- CV = Fleet Carrier (ex - Bengal)
- CVE = Escort Carrier (ex - Pegasus)
- BB = Battleship
- CA = Cruiser
- CB = Battlecruiser
- DD = Destroyer (ex - Javelin)
- FF = Frigate (ex - Idris)
- FFL = Frigate Light
- K = Corvette (ex - Polaris)
Arguably not Capital ships, but here are the UEEN designations anyway:
- AP = Transport
- AOG = Tanker (ex- Starfarer Gemini)
Many of these ship classes are not traditionally consider Capital class, however in the Star Citizen 'verse, the term appears to have evolved to include any warship bigger than a Corvette, becoming roughly equivalent to the modern day term "warship".
