The following lists covers both ships and boats (including submarines) both currently and formerly in service with the Royal Navy of Isselmere-Nieland from about the turn of the twentieth-century to the present day. Locally, the name of a ship or submarine is preceded by the abbreviation HMS for His (or Her) Majesty's Ship/Submarine, whereas boats are preceded by the abbreviation HMB for HM Boat. Internationally, the names of Isselmere-Nielander naval vessels are preceded by the acronym HINMS or HINMB for His/Her Isselmerian and Nielander Majesty's Ship/Submarine/Boat.
Aircraft carriers
Fleet carriers
Fleet carriers are full-sized aircraft carriers that provide the flexible, long-range strike power of Royal Navy battle fleets. According to real-life US Navy hull classification symbols, fleet carriers are categorised as follows:
- CV — Fleet carrier
- CVB — Heavy fleet carrier
The ships themselves are registered in accordance with Western European practice as Rx, with x being the hull or pennant number.
- Royal Edmund class (2003-2004)
- Royal Holly class (2004)
- House class (2004)
- Peel class (2004-)
- Chancellor class (2004-)
- Union class (2004-)
Light carriers
Light carriers in this category would fall under four United States Navy-derived hull classification symbols:
- CVD — uncrewed aerial vehicle carrier
- CVE — escort carrier (to 1947)
- CVL — light carrier
- CVS — anti-submarine carrier
The ships themselves are registered in accordance with Western European practice as Rx, with x being the hull or pennant number.
