In rough order of tonnage (largest to smallest), modern surface naval ships are commonly divided into the following different classes. The larger ships in the list can also be classed as [[capital ship]]s.
{{div col start|colwidth=15em}}
* [[Aircraft carrier]]
* [[Helicopter carrier]]
* [[Amphibious assault ship]]
* [[Stealth ship]]
* [[Battleship]]
* [[Battlecruiser]]
* [[Heavy cruiser]]
* [[Light cruiser]]
* [[Destroyer]]
* [[Frigate]]
* [[Corvette]]
* [[Patrol boat]]
* [[Fast attack craft]]

Some classes above may now be considered obsolete as no ships matching the class are in current service. There is also much blurring and gray areas between the classes, depending on their intended use, history, and interpretation of the class by different navies.
