The Grand Navy of Velikoslavia is the maritime service branch of the Grand Armed Forces of Velikoslavia and one of the six uniformed services of Velikoslavia. Though it has fewer active ships than many contemporary navies, it is considered one of the more powerful fleets in Belisaria, with the estimated tonnage of its active battle fleet totaling XXX. The Grand Navy is also notable for having no active carriers in service, which is considered an outlier for a navy with its budget and size. With 32,043 personnel on active duty and 20,492 in the reserve, the Grand Navy is the third largest of the Velikoslav military service branches in terms of personnel. It has X deployable combat vessels and about X operational aircraft as of March 2024.

The Grand Navy traces its origins to the Princely Fleet of the Principality of Kollavik, which formed its base when Vitomir I declared the formation of the Velikoslav Empire at the culmination of his dispute over the throne of Perateia. The Great Nordic Fleet was founded in 1474 as the first fleet of the new navy. Throughout the next years, the navy played major roles in key engagements such as the Thirty Years War and the Great Republican War. The modern navy maintains a sizable prescense in the waterways around Velikoslavia and beyond, recently providing support for royalist forces in the Fahrani Civil War. It is a blue-water navy with the ability to project to other regions if necessary, though it normally does not.

The Navy is headed by the civilian Minister of Defense and the Lord-Admiral. Daily operations are overseen by the Operations Admiral, who serves as the second in command. It is made up of two fleets, the Grand Nordic Fleet, which contains the bulk of the active surface ships, and the Imperial Northern Fleet, which is primarily made up of submarines.

History

The Grand Navy is the second oldest branch, having been founded right after the army with the assimilation of the various boyar maintained ships and the Princely Fleet. The primary command center for the navy is based in the port of Levograv in the fortress of Argopol.
