Maritime Reserves

Maritime Reserves are ships and personnel that are maintained in a state of readiness to support a country's navy or maritime security forces during emergencies or conflicts. They include reserve units responsible for supplementing active-duty vessels and personnel when needed, ensuring rapid response capabilities. These reserves help maintain a nation's maritime security, protect against threats at sea, and ensure the availability of resources for humanitarian aid or disaster relief. Essentially, Maritime Reserves are a strategic backup of trained ships and crew members that can be mobilized quickly to enhance maritime defense and security efforts.
