Surface combatant

A surface combatant is a warship designed for defense and offensive operations on the ocean's surface. These ships, such as destroyers and cruisers, are equipped with advanced weapons and sensors to detect and engage threats like enemy ships, aircraft, or submarines. They play a key role in maritime security, fleet protection, and power projection. Surface combatants are versatile and fast, capable of both offensive strikes and defensive maneuvers, making them a crucial part of a naval fleet's operational capabilities.
