Yes, but, ships are never named after their fuel. We don’t say ‘coal’ ships if coal is used to boil the water, nor wood or oil ships for the other common means of generating steam, just as coal, oil or wood cannot move a ship unless it is steam powered ,or has some other type of engine, a nuclear re...

Re the NS Savannah, like all but a couple of very dangerous. experimental shiips which actually were nuclear powered, she is a steam ship and is steam powered not nuclear powered, all that the reactor does is boil the water, more efficiently than other means.
The reactor cannot move the ship.
