sister ship

Matching vessel design

A sister ship is a vessel built to the same design as another, sharing the same class and specifications.

The Titanic and Olympic were sister ships.

The term extends to aircraft and spacecraft of identical design.

Sister ships may differ in minor details while maintaining the same fundamental construction.
