The President can create categories for Navy ships. He can also change these categories later. He does this whenever the Navy's needs change.

This short section gives the President the power to set up a system for classifying Navy ships — grouping them into categories. The President isn't locked into one system forever; he can modify the classification whenever the needs of the naval service require a change.
