Ships What does the "FSS" decal mean on Fed rank-locked ships?

As it says on the tin.
Most ships by CoreDyn, and only those, have this sticker on the side:

The sticker seems to be on all the rank-locked CDyn ships. I can't spot it on the Eagle and Vulture.
FDS, FAS, FGS and Vette all have it.

So it probably stands for the service branch / organization that enables you to get those rank-locked ships. But what exactly does it mean? After all, you're part of the Federal Navy Auxiliary, so something like "FNA" would make complete sense, as opposed to the official FNS designations.
Federal Support Ship?
Federal Secret Service?

Would be nice to know. =)

Terrorists Identified Among Marlinist Refugees​


18 Nov 3306

A screening process for Marlinist asylum-seekers arriving in the Federation has located several members of the NMLA terrorist group.

Vice President Brad Mitchell personally initiated a Federal Security Service operation to uncover any Neo-Marlinist extremists concealed among the refugee population.

The Vice President delivered this report to Congress:

“After standard ID scans flagged up some potential suspects, FSS officers employed more vigorous checks and interview techniques. They found nine individuals who were active members of the NMLA.”

“The terrorists have been transported to secure facilities for further interrogation, after which they will be handed over to Imperial authorities. Our security services remain vigilant against this danger that the Liberal Party has invited into our communities.”

Vox Galactica featured a statement by Marlinist community leader Dr Jenna Fairfax:

“I am horrified to learn of NMLA hiding among us. These killers do not represent the principles of Marlinism, and we are happy to cooperate in expelling them.”

In related news, protestors on several Federal worlds have warned of increased crime, terrorism and economic damage unless all refugees are sent back to the Empire. Counter-protests have called for the Marlinists to be welcomed as fellow believers in democratic government.
