The Prokho Navy (Prokho: Прoкhо Fлотморсков, tr. Prokho Flotmorskov, abbr. FМК or FMK, lit. Prokho Naval Fleet) is the naval warfare force of Prokhogorsk and naval branch of the Armed Forces of Prokhogorsk. The current Prokho Navy was established at federation in 1925, after the dissolution of the Socialist Union.

The origins of the Prokho Navy trace back to the Imperial Navy established in 1683 by Cheslav II. Alongside coastal fortresses, naval forces were assembled to protect the capital of Karlivorod and maintain control over the Karliv Sea amidst Kimenese aggression.

Progressive tensions between the Esermian Strategic Treaty and United Socialist Coalition since the 1970s has lead to Prokhogorsk maintaining an extensive naval force, comprised of the Parazin Sea Fleet, the Northeastern Fleet, and the Strasian Gulf Fleet (which primarily combats Kimenese and Siradian piracy as part of Operation Comip).

In the decades following restoration of the monarchy, the Navy saw modernization of armament and combat systems, and the transition to nuclear propulsion for nearly all large ships and submarines. Reformation and rearmament since 2011 saw the decommissioning of several ships including the flagship Tatarsovo, the lead ship of her class. Currently ships continue to be retrofit or decommissioned, with designs of new ship types undergoing trials as part of the MILI20 program, which seeks to overhaul the armed forces of various EST member nations by 2020.

Titles and naming

During the Prokho Empire, ships were commissioned with the prefix of KYV (КЕВ in Prokho), for His Majesty's Ship (Корабль Его Величества, tr. Korabl' Yego Velichestva). Since re-institution of the monarchy, all commissioned ships were restored with the KYV prefix.
