I use either navy or fleet interchangeably, anyways it's time for a final and definite post of the Imperial Navy and all it's planet crushing glory. This will mainly be about the larger types of warships (Consul and up) with some mentioning of the smaller fighters and such.

Non-Titan class ships:

These are the smaller (shorter then 5 kilometers in length) and by far the most used ships in all the navy. They are used for everything from patrols to bulking up fleet numbers or escort duty they include the Consul (2-Kilometers) and Legate class (3-kilometers) they are also a series of smaller frigates and cruisers present (Most are about a kilometer in length) Important frigate types to note are the Censor class, Lictor class,  and Questor class (All of these are used for mainly patrol and escort duty and reach around a kilometer in length with the Lictor only reaching around 500 meters)

Titan class ships:

The Hard hitters of the Imperial navy they are ships beyond the length of 5 Kilometers and are normally considered 'planet killers' or heavy battleships. These are the main heavy battle ships of the Empire and the pride of the navy. Most have planet destroying capabilities or orbital bombardment weapons. They are normally used to quell Resistance throughout the Empire or as heavy shock ships. Some are also placed over recently pacified worlds to help tame the residence.

The main classes of titan ships are as follows Pro-consul (6 kilometers), Prefect (10 kilometers), and Praetor (15 kilometers). For the most part these ships are 'rarer' then the other classes with maybe 3 to a medium sized fleet.

Colossus class ships:

colossus class ships are anything longer then or at 20 meters and if you get the rare chance of seeing one... ask yourself why am I not running yet? These things are to be simple almost like floating space stations then ships with massive crews, massive weapons, and a massive reputation.

Main colossus class ships are as follows Pro-Prator (20 kilometers), Pro-Curator (25 kilometers), and Dictator classes (35 kilometers).

Leviathan class:

Anything longer or at 50 meters. They are beyond super battleships and are either a flag ship of a important admiral, the spear head of a massive assault, or just pure shock and awe.

The main classes are the Imperator (50 Kilometers) and Pro-Imperator (65 kilometers) they normally don't show up that often on the battle field.

Goliath class (When you thought it coulden't get worse :P):

The final class and the more 'experimental' class of warships are massive, to Rin standards of course with some stretching 100 kilometers or more.

Only two classes are built in real numbers and that is the Dio Imperator (125 Kilometers) one is given to each Segmentum Majorus, and is the flag ship of a Grand Marshal Admiral and the Invictus Imperator (150 kilometers) and are the flagships of the Grand Lord Admirals and the Lord Admiral commander himself (The head of the fleet) these warships tend not to surface too often unless the empire is in dire need.

Minotaur class:

A rumored ship class said to be a planetary sized warships the only known sighting was of the massive ship 'Oblivion' when it surfaced at the port of Ostium (The only port in the empire able to service such vessels)

Other:

If the fleet had a anthem it would be this:
