submarine fleet

A submarine fleet is a group of submarines operated by a nation's navy. These vessels are designed to quietly navigate underwater for long periods, capable of performing various missions such as strategic deterrence, intelligence gathering, and naval defense. Submarine fleets often include different types, like ballistic missile submarines for nuclear deterrence and attack submarines for combat and surveillance. They enhance a country's maritime security by extending its reach beneath the surface, maintaining a persistent underwater presence without being easily detected, and providing crucial strategic and tactical capabilities in naval operations.
