Just taken a look at the NACA3 (it is next on my list for skinning)

Now I know why it has this weird designation
In the ship cfg in the Data/Sea folder I found the following entry
DisplayName=JP Fast Merchant

So it seems as if the FOTRS crew wanted it to be called a Fast Merchant

However there is no entry in the Data/Roster/Names.cfg for the NACA3
The entry in the names.cfg is key to what the museum and recognition manual call the ship

Without an entry in this file it will default to whatever the actual ship.cfg file name in the SEA folder is - which in this case is NACA3

This also explains the next few ships on my list - the NL_B, and NL_C

Hope this makes sense
