The Unit Designation Protocols were a set of naming protocols for Clan manufactured military hardware.

History
ilKhan Victoria Ward introduced the Protocols to unify the names given to vehicles and aerospace fighters newly manufactured by the Clans under commonly accepted themes.
Schema
Known elements of the Protocols include
- Conventional vehicles: named after martial themed deities.
- Conventional aerospace fighters: named after topics related to Alexander the Great
- OmniFighters: named after topics related to the Mongol Empire (particularly Genghis Khan)
The Protocols apparently did not extend to similar equipment imported from the Inner Sphere via the Exodus and later via Operation REVIVAL; for such cases, the Clans generally used the same name for hardware of Inner Sphere manufacture as the Inner Sphere did.
