The [[Hallandic Navy| Commonwealth Navy]] is one of the world's largest navies and the largest navy in [[Asteria]] in terms of fleet tonnage. As of 2019, the Navy operates a total of 119 vessels (including minor auxiliary vessels), including 2 {{wp|Aircraft_carrier|Aircraft Carriers}}, 3 {{wp|Landing_helicopter_assault|Amphibious Assault Ships}}, 3 {{wp|Amphibious_transport_dock|Amphibious Transport Docks}}, 21 {{wp|Destroyer|Destroyers}}, 9 {{wp|Frigate|Frigates}}, 5 {{wp|Corvette|Corvettes}}, 22 {{wp|Patrol_boat|Patrol Ships}}, 14 {{wp|Mine_countermeasures_vessel|MCMVs}}, 25 {{wp|Auxiliary_ship|Auxiliary Vessls}}, 4 {{wp|SSN_(hull_classification_symbol)|Nuclear Attack Submarines}} and 11 {{wp|Attack_submarine|Attack Submarines}}. Additionally, three non-comissioned historical ships are kept afloat and mantained as museum ships, {{wp|Iowa-class_battleship|CN Leon}}, {{wp|Midway-class_aircraft_carrier|CN Leonard Kelly}} and {{wp|USS_Constitution|CN Independence}}.
The list does not include vessels operated by [[Halland]]'s Coast Guard or those operated by the Commonwealth Marines. The Auxiliary Navy is also bolstered by civilian vessels in support of naval operations when necessary. Most crew in the Auxiliary navy is of civillian background. Other than these ships, Halland sustains some retired vessels in the Reserve fleet, where ships are maintained sufficiently to return to active service in 6 months when needed in times of war.

The Hallandic Armed Forces, also known as Commonwealth Armed Forces, are the military forces of the State of Halland. They are composed of the Army, the Navy, the Marines and the Air Force.
