As we change Head of Government on a regular basis and the concept that the country belongs to the People and not the President....we use "United States Ship (USS) for our Navy's ships.

But where we fall down in a way is we often name new ships using historical names from before except in one case which can cause some confusion when discussing that Ship.....except for the USS Constitution which is still commissioned and sailed.

Some are turned into Museums... https://www.navysite.de/specials/museumships.htm
