Naval Operations refer to the activities carried out by naval forces to achieve specific military objectives at sea. This includes the strategic planning, execution, and management of naval warfare and activities such as controlling sea lanes, conducting amphibious assaults, performing reconnaissance, engaging in combat, and providing support for land and air operations. Naval operations encompass various missions, including deterrence, power projection, maritime security, and humanitarian assistance. They involve the use of a wide array of naval assets, including surface ships, submarines, aircraft, and unmanned systems, and require coordination with other branches of the military and allied forces. The successful execution of naval operations is critical for maintaining maritime dominance and ensuring national security.
