The Polarussian National Navy is the naval branch of the Military of Polarus . The navy operates from multiple bases along the country's coastline, fulfilling its primary role of monitoring and defending Polarus's territorial waters against all foreign military or economic intrusion. Additional missions include coast guard and maritime safety missions as well a projection of marine forces.

The bulk of the Polarussian Navy is still based on mostly Cold War designs, although work is being done to both acquire new platforms as well as modernize existing equipment. The surface fleet is equipped with a mixture of smaller ships well suited to coastal and Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) patrol work. Polarus also has had a small submarine presence in the southern Mare Ferum with a number of Kilo class patrol submarines. Their amphibious warfare capacity has traditionally been limited with a small group of landing ships essentially for coastal transport roles, although the recent additions of a pair of amphibious assault ships strenghtens their role in this regard.

History

The Polarussian Navy traces its roots back to the early merchant fleets on the 800's. The modern naval forces established themselves after the collapse of the Empire of Exponent in 1996, with sailors seizing a number of vessels belonging to the former Imperial fleet moored in the area. Today, the Polarussian Navy primarily takes part in international missions in support of the East Astyrian Treaty Alliance, most notably during the Greater Insula Feran Conflict.
