While it does serve as a staging and cycling point for much of the Zamastanian Navy, tensions with Yuan have resulted in the Zamastanian military taking "deescalatory measures" by refusing to name it Hosea Rock as the home port of any ships in the fleet. Officially, Hosea Rock provides facilities for the logistic support of forward-deployed units and visiting operating forces of the Zamastanian Navy, allied WEDA vessels, and designated tenant activities.
