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), twenty frigates (twelve Flavia-Class Figate, four Fiona-Class Frigate, and four Faustine-Class Frigate), and twelve destroyers (seven Diana-Class Destroyers, three Dolphina-Class Destroyers, and two Domina-Class Destroyers).
Submarines have been a new addition to the Navy, currently operating four 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 forty Marsala-Class Patrol Boats.
