== Summary == This module generates links to ships in the Naval Vessel Register (nvr.navy.mil) database. Intended to be used by: *{{tlx|Naval Vessel Register URL}} *{{tlx|Naval Vessel Register service craft URL}} NVR have adopted a file naming convention based on a ship's [[hull classification symbol]] with an appended underscore and some number of digits. The extra digits do not seem to follow an identifiable pattern so the former rules-based system used here no longer works. To get round the 'new' file format, this version of the module adopts a brute-force mechanism by using a local database that maps a ship's hull classification symbol to its associated NVR file name. The database is two large Lua tables maintained at [[Module:Naval Vessel Register URL/data]].
