The Fuso Navy (扶海軍 Fuso Kaigun), is the maritime warfare branch of the Fuso Armed Forces. It is the de facto navy of Fuso and formed following the dissolution of the Imperial Fuso Navy after the Intercontinental War. Over 82,000 active personnel serve in the Navy. The Fuso Navy is primarily tasked with the naval defense of Fuso, and the protection of international assets, sea lanes and to patrol territorial waters. The Fuso Navy frequently participates in international peacekeeping and anti-piracy operations. The Navy also commands the Fuso Marines ( specifically called the Amphibious Rapid Reaction Force in Fuso ), which operates as the infantry arm of the Navy conducting expeditionary and amphibious warfare.
