The Fortunan Navy is Fortuna's main priority as it is the first line of defense and protection of international shipping lanes.

The surface fleet for the Navy is split into three separate fleets: the Emili Fleet (1st Fleet), the Toscani Fleet (2nd Fleet), and the Ancona Fleet (3rd Fleet). The surface fleet consists of three amphibious assault ships (three Cecilia-Class Amphibious Assault Ships), four amphibious transport docks (four Claudia-Class Amphibious Transport Docks), eighteen frigates (ten Flavia-Class Figate, eight Fiona-Class Frigate), and twenty four destroyers (fourteen Diana-Class Destroyers, ten Dolphina-Class Destroyers).

Submarines have been a new addition to the Navy, currently operating six Jutta-Class Submarines since 2006 with six more planned.

The Navy also employs four Rissa-Class Replenishment Ships, one Sibyl-Class Surveillance Ship, and two Sibena-Class Research Vessels which serve as the Navy's auxiliary and support vessels.

To protect and regulate Fortunan waters and coast line, the Navy operates fifty-eight Marsala-Class Patrol Boats.

Air Force

The Fortunan Air Force is Fortuna's aerial and smallest military branch.

The FAF currently operates three types of aircraft as their fighters. The FAF's primary fighter is the E-A Aletta, the RAe Mirage F1, and the RAe Mirage 2000. Both the RAe Mirage F1 and the RAe Mirage 2000 were purchased from the Veridian Union. The RAe Mirage F1 were inherited from the Emili and Anconan military from purchases back in the 1970s while the RAe Mirage 2000 were purchased in the early 2000s by the newly formed nation of Fortuna. Not wanting to mainly rely on allied aircraft, in 2005 the Fortunan government requested for the creation of a Fortunan designed and built aircraft. After nine years, the Fortunan Science and Engineering Department introduced the FSED Adreana. Currently only four have been built and are still going through testing.

For transport aircraft, the FAF operates two types of aircraft with each serving specific roles. The E-A Angela primary purpose is to serve as Fortuna's main tactical airlifter, three of which were fitted for aerial refueling. The FSED Aria serves as the secondary transport.

The primary helicopters that the FAF uses is the E-A Helena and the E-A Hilaria, both serving as SAR and utility transport. Recently the FAF introduced the FSED Hadria which is to be the replacement for the E-A Helena.

Currently only rotary craft are used in the navy. The three crafts include the FSED Hadria, the FSED Horace, and the E-A Henrietta.

Regulatori

The Regulatori is the fourth branch of the Fortunan Armed Forces, but rarely serves in military operations. The main role of the Regulatori is to act as the law enforcement for Fortuna and personal guards of government officials.
