The first traces of a Kapukan naval forces orginated inside of the Kingdom of Limoni. The kingdom, along with its successors all had very large fleets of canoes. These boats were used to explore the Hanmaric and lead to settlements such as ones seen on the coasts of the nation of Oya'in. With Zhenian contact, Kapuku became a crown dependency of their empire. This lead to great expansion of both the Naval and Merchant fleets of Kapuku. By 1870, the merchant fleet of Kapuku had over 80 ships in service. Around this time, the first official Kapukan navy was created to act as an auxillary to the great Zhenian fleet.

In the late 1920's, Kapuku had a median navy. The navy present during that time still acted as an auxillary fleet to the Zhenian Navy. With the outbreak of the Second World War, the Kapukan Navy was moved to be a part of the Zhenian Navy. The Kapukan fleet fought feircly in the Hanmaric, with many enemy ships being sunk by the Kapukan navy. With the start of the Hopai Uprising in 1941, parts of the Kapukan Navy went against Zhenia and defended the islands. The Hopai Uprising saw over 30 Zhenian ships sunk by the Kapukan Navy. From 1944-1946 the Kapukan Navy acted as an unorganized part of the military. In 1947 with the coup, the modern from of the Kapukan Navy was created. In the 1960s and 1970s, the navy saw great expansion. The number of ships went from under 50 to over 90 in less than 20 years. The 2000s saw the most recent expansion of the navy with 3 new submarines and over 10 new modern ships created.

The navy is organized into three fleets; the UL Fleet, HH Fleet, and the OW Fleet. Each fleet has a different niche inside of the navy. The UL Fleet's job is to protect the islands of Ulukau and Limoni, the HH Fleet's job is to protect the islands of Huamea and Hulawa, and the OW Fleet's job is to protect the territorial waters of Kapuku as well as conduct offensive attacks during times of war.
