Joint Base Altona Cove, also known as Altona Cove Naval Base, is a Zamastanian military base located in Alutia, Alutiana. It is an amalgamation of the Zamastanian Air Force's Enoch Robinson Air Force Base and the Zamastanian Naval Forces' Altona Cove Naval Station, which were merged in 2012. It is the largest naval facility located on Titania Bay, and it serves many contingents of the Cantalle Ocean fleets, providing berthing and shore side support to surface ships and submarines, as well as maintenance and training. Altona Cove can accommodate the largest ships in the fleet, to include dry dock services, and is now home to over 160 commands. Following Alutiana's independence in 2021, President Stephanie Morente's government allowed Zamastan's military to continue utilizing the base indefinitely under mutual defense agreements.
