→Library Only Classes
'''"Ship classes"''' refers to the common practice of building multiple ships using a same or similar design. The design is then called a "class", and the class is often named after its 1st built or commissioned ship, or the initial design's code name. Ships built under the same class are then called "sister ships".
*In Kancolle, several "classes" are instead referred to by their "type" (e.g. the {{Class|Number 2}} is referred to as the {{Type|Type D Kaiboukan}}).
*Some informal classes are also sometimes used, such as the "{{Type|Special Type Destroyers}}", or the ones listed ''[[#Library Only Classes|bellow]]''.
<!--
Categories use in-game sorting. Kancolle mostly sorts ship classes nationally and then by implementation date order. Hibiki and Yukikaze's foreign remodels don't count toward this.

Card implementations use an art change criteria--><!--reformatted to one row per kanmusu unless there's no art changes for multiple kanmusu. It is inelegant for destroyers. Any alternatives?-->

=Library Only Classes=
The following is a list of cases where the class displayed in the game [[Library]] of a ship is different from the real ship's class.
*None of those cases has any gameplay effect.
*Those cases are purely cosmetic, often reflecting IRL concepts, or being fully made-up.
