The Royal Mutulese Navy is the maritime combat arm of the Mutulese military, alongside the Mutulese Army, Mutulese Air Force and Royal Mutulese Marine Corps. The RMN is a potent offensive and sea-control force for a developing nation of Mutul’s stature, featuring a mix of vessels and assets which originate from either indigenous Mutulese technology of foreign designs.
Role and organization
The main role of the RMN is to project Mutulese military powers into the northern waters, to seize command of the seas or, perhaps more realistically, deny it to the enemy. To this end, it is only a component in Mutul’s overall maritime warfare strategy, operating in conjunction with the Air Force’s long-range strike aircraft, the Army’s land-based missile batteries, and the RMMC’s amphibious warfare capabilities.
The RMN’s surface ships are organized into two Expeditionary Strike Groups. Each is centred around an Ajaw Class Landing Helicopter Dock, two Landing Platform Docks, and two large Landing Ship Tanks. Each ESG is capable of transporting and landing a full RMMC brigade. Each group is also escorted by a squadron of destroyers and frigates, capable of countering air, surface and sub-surface threats.
The other key component of the RMN is its submarine fleet. Equipped with modern diesel-electric submarines, it is a potent anti-ship force in littoral and open waters.
