A naval fleet is a group of naval vessels, such as WARSHIPS, armadas, and other vessels, that are organized and deployed by a navy for the purpose of conducting military operations. An ARMADA is a large fleet of ships, usually WARSHIPS, assembled for a specific purpose. Vessels are any type of watercraft, such as boats, ships, and submarines, used for transportation or other purposes. WARSHIPS are heavily armed and armored combat vessels that are specifically designed for warfare. Together, these three components form a naval fleet, which is an important part of any navy's arsenal.
