Imperial Akitsukunese Navy

The Imperial Akitsukunese Navy

Origins
Formed during Civil War; the first "Imperial" service. It initially had a couple of gunboats and a single ironclad that later grew with the acquisition of the Republican Navy ships. Grew over the years, built a super-battleship until it was devastated in the Eulhae War (not that it was particularly powerful int he first place), reduced to guarding the Sea of Akitsukuni. Rebuilt, modernised, and is now largest and most powerful Navy in North Uju.

Cold War
During the Cold War, the Akitsukunese gave their navy a number of missions, in addition to its role as one of the legs of the nuclear triad, the navy was supposed to destroy communist SSBNs and carrier groups, interdict communist lines of communications, and assist eht ground forces in continental theatre offensives.

During the Cold War, the Soviets gave their navy a number of missions, in addition to its role as one of the legs of the nuclear triad, the navy was supposed to destroy American SSBNs and carrier groups, interdict NATO lines of communications, and assist the ground forces in continental theatre offensives.[17] They were quick to equip their surface fleet with missiles of various sorts. In fact, it became a hallmark of Soviet design to place large anti-ship missiles onto relatively small and fast missile boats. The Soviet Navy also possessed several very large guided missile cruisers with great firepower, such as those of the Kirov class and the Slava class cruisers. In the 1980s the Imperial Navy acquired its first true aircraft carrier, Admiral Anabuki.

In some respects, including speed and reactor technology, later Soviet submarines were, and remain, some of the world's best.[citation needed] Their primary shortcomings were insufficient noise damping (American boats were quieter) and sonar technology. The Soviets possessed numerous purpose-built guided missile submarines, such as the Oscar-class submarine, as well as many ballistic missile submarines, such as the Delta class submarines, and attack submarines, such as the Victor and Akula-class submarines. The Soviet Navy's Typhoon class ballistic missile boats are the world's largest submarines. The Soviet attack submarine force was, like the rest of the navy, geared towards the interception of NATO convoys, but also targeted American aircraft carrier battle groups.
