ANS stands for Alliance Navy Ship as in USS stands for United States Ship

Allied Nations Ship.

I would go with Alliance Navy Ship

@Eraser: actually by your example, Allied Nations Ship is more appropriate because it means the "ship that belongs to several nations that are allied" analogous to United States Ship - meaning a "ship that belongs to several states that are united". btw who cares?

Yes, but the Allied Nations were called the Western Alliance or just Alliance and not Allied Nations, and since the Reliant is part of the Alliance Navy, Alliance Navy Ship seems more appropriate IMO Though I guess nobody knows for sure...

I tend to agree with Eraser - Alliance Navy Ship seems closer to truth.

More geek nostalgia: The Eastern Coalition ships are designated as simply "CS".
