I translate RNC as Rheinland Naval Cap(ital Ship). Not really fitting, but heh...
In German they are called RWK ... so ... "Rheinwehr Kriegschiff" maybe. Maybe they really intended the C as Cruiser and the K was meant as "Kreuzer" (Cruiser)...
Anyway, Corsairs don't have capship-tags as far as I know. CNS is probably another faction. So I'd be carefull about that.
And yep, you missed OCV - the Order Capital Vessel tag.
Because A) It was put in for the Donau
B) Gunboats, Cruisers and Battleships all were not considered separate classes in vanilla.
C) The average person would not care what every little three letter designation in front of the big ships meant; they would be too busy NOT DYING.
If backronyming it into something that makes sense is so important, then try Rheinland Naval Craft.

Hey, when you see NCC out there - that stands for Naval Construction Contract number. Then putting an alpha code after the number designates a hull where the original ship was destroyed, but they wanted to keep the name going.
(I have the Star Trek mod for Freelancer - it's fun.)
And I took RNC to mean Rheinland Naval Craft, similar to Her Majesties Ship or Liberty Naval Ship, Imperial Kusari Navy, Royal Naval Ship (Gallia), etc, etc...
Oh, and screw you, Jeremy - I just saw your edit...

Well i have talked to some mns and cns guys. The mns says it represents that it represents oc cap ships not any faction, where some cns says they are a faction and some says they are not. The later says cns represents corsir cap ships
