The hull numbers are usually assigned to each ship consecutively, though number sequences may be skipped for a variety of reasons (planned ships that were never commissioned or bureaucratic maneuvering, for example) and older numbers may be reused for new ships in order to "inherit" the identity of a particular storied vessel.<ref>[https://www.halowaypoint.com/en-us/news/sweet-centennial ''Halo Waypoint'': Canon Fodder - Sweet Centennial]</ref> | ||
