In addition, some subtypes may also be used like :
*[[CVE|Escort Carriers]] (CVE): ASW-focused CVL,
**Some ships have additional unique types, but with no impact on types' mechanic behaviors
*[[CVN|Night Carriers]] (CVN): CV/L natively capable to do night carrier attacks.
* Light Aircraft Carriers & Standard Aircraft Carriers are termed 正規空母, or Fleet Carriers, to distinguish them from Escort Carriers or other carrier types. This term sometimes refers only to Standard Aircraft Carriers.

;Notes
* [[CT|Training Cruisers]] & [[CLT|Torpedo Cruisers]] do not count as a [[List of light cruisers by upgraded maximum stats|Light Cruiser]] for [[Expedition|expeditions]] or [[Tutorial: FAQ#Why do I keep getting sent to the wrong place?|branching rules]] requirements.
*Some ships have additional unique types, but with no impact on types' mechanic behaviors.
**''See [[Glossary#Type classification|here]] for a complete classifications list.
* Some ships like the [[:Category:Chitose Class|''Chitose''-class]] and [[Taigei]] have remodels shifting their ship type, and sometimes even their class and their name.
* Battleships & Fast Battleships share the hull classification 戦/BB.
* Light Aircraft Carriers & Standard Aircraft Carriers are termed 正規空母, or Fleet Carriers, to distinguish them from "Escort Carriers" or other carrier types. This term most often refers only to Standard Aircraft Carriers.
*Even so several types of ships are very similar (CL/CLT/CT, CA/CAV, FBB/BB/BBV, & CV/CVL), they nonetheless are different types than can not always be interchanged, notably regarding [[Tutorial: FAQ#Why do I keep getting sent to the wrong place?|branching rules]], most [[Quests]], or some [[Expeditions]].
**So far, both CV & CVB as well as SS & SSV are fully interchangeable.
* Some ships have remodels shifting their type, their class, and/or their name, ''see [[#Ship Stats & Remodels|below]] for more details.
