- Finding type
- historical_record

[4]NavSource Naval History, Patrol Craft Sweeper index, SC-497 class listing [other_primary]
- Locator
- SC-497 Class listing, lines/entry SC-739 ex-PC-739
- Finding type
- historical_record
- Finding
- The live NavSource index places SC-739 in the SC-497 class listing and labels it 'ex-PC-739.' The record therefore retains one vessel under canonical designation SC-739, with PC-739 as an alias, rather than treating PC-739 as a PC-461-class hull.

[5]CourtListener authenticated v4 search, required base query "USS PC-739" (opinions), fleet pacing response [other_primary]
- Locator
- Helper stderr: COURTLISTENER PACING: fleet-wide request budget momentarily spent; exit 2
- Finding type
- litigation_documented
- Finding
- No CourtListener result is reported for this hull: the authenticated helper accepted the exact-name opinion query but the fleet-wide pacing limiter spent its 60-second acquisition window before an HTTP request could be issued. The other three required base queries were not sent to avoid retrying into the shared limiter.
