The Royal Qalehi Navy (Qalehi: نیروی دریایی سلطنتی قله), commonly abbreviated to RQN, is the naval warfare branch of the Qalehi Armed Forces, the military of Qal'eh.

The navy is the most invested branch of the Qalehi Armed Forces, with 45% of the military budget estimated to have gone to the navy and navy-related aspects in 2017. It forms Qal'eh's first line of defense in the Decanian Sea, and is pivotal in the protection of national sovereignty. The navy also plays a large role in the administration of the Kasahgan Peninsula.

The sole maritime branch of the Qalehi Armed Forces, the RQN holds all of Qal'eh's naval prowess, including large attack ships like destroyers, frigates and cruisers. As well as tactically-oriented ships, such as amphibious assault craft, all four of which are important for the projection of Qalehi power overseas.
