The Royal Fleets of Lindonarlin provide the long arm of the Realm’s armed forces. Four Carrier Fleets and Four Battle Fleets make up the naval forces. The Realm takes great pride in her sea power maintaining an impressive fleet capable of protecting interests all over Aurora. Strong traditions are kept in the Fleets and the seamen of the Realm pride themselves on their strength at sea.
The Royal Fleet are headquartered at Annuvalon Naval Base in Harafal where the Fleet High Command meet to discuss strategy and planning. There are two more bases; Elcontar Naval Base at Dolphin Point and Imrahil Naval Base at Pearl Sands. The High Command is made up of the Admiral of the Fleets, his General Staff made up of his Staff Admirals and 1st Admirals and his many advisors. The FHC also see to that the Legions are equipped and supplied properly, that all operations go smoothly, the needs of the individual units are met and that any problems are addressed.
A Carrier Fleet is made up of one Carrier, one Destroyer, three Ecoran class Cruisers, five Province class Cruisers, five Noble class AntiSub Escorts plus an oiler and two supply ships. A Battle Fleet is made up of two Destroyers, five Ecoran class Cruisers, two Province class Cruisers, two Noble class AntiSub Escorts plus two oilers and three supply ships.
Each Fleet is self sufficient and equipped to take on a number of tasks. During certain missions or operations, Fleets may combine or exchange ships to better meet the outlined objectives.
The Royal Fleets maintain several decomissioned vessels on standby alert. The ships are kept in reserve in case of war or other emergency. These ships include several older Valon class Carriers, Monarch class destroyers as well as older cruisers and patrol ships. The Realm also maintains several support ships that are not assigned to fleets such as tender ships, mine hunters, troop transports, towing ships and hospital ships.
The realm's Fleets are currently crewed by 61,831 sailors plus an additional support crew of 20,400 and an additional 15,457 personnel on naval bases.
