Fleet ships are all assigned a unique heraldic device, which is used on their official documentation, any ship's patches, and on ship's formal dinnerware.
History
This came about... when? And inspired by what?
Design
Each ship's device is assembled from a template that indicates the ship's commission date, enrollment date, commissioning shipyard, service history, ship's class, and ship's service (Fleet, FIA, etc), in addition to its unique charge.
Shields
Each class of ship is assigned its own shield shape.
- Warcruiser - Tower Shield
- Battlecruiser - Spiked Heater
- Scout - Kite
- Courier - French base
- Destroyer - Wankel
- Long-range Scout (deprecated) - Oval
Crests

Charges
The one unique element in each ship's device is their charge, which is specially designed for them and usually illustrates the ship's name.
