Nikoli the rebel wrote: No. Let me explain this. The USA, and UK have Blue water navies. Those navies have huge ships that are expensive and expensive to maintian. They have aircraft carriers, battleships, and lots of big ships. They can deploy marines. They can be resupplied halfway around the world by supply ships. Focus is to take on all other hostile ships, provide air supremeacy/air support, large anphibious operations far from home.

A green water navy can only operate near the coast. It cannont resupply far away from home. It has small aircraft carriers and it has heavy crusiers instead of battleships. Its focus is to take on Green and brown water navies while also providing air support. Can do an amphibious operation but not a really big one. They are medium expensive and medium number of ships.

Brown water navy. Cheap. Used to hold the line at rivers. Used to take out other brown water navies. Consists of gunboats and mabye a few destroyers. Lots of ships. Small anphibious operatons. Might launch a few helicopters for air support. Ok I'm back, answer time.

All of the above

cargo ships with weapons and armor supporting the all of the above

mining ships with weapons and armor supporting the all of the above

fishing ships with arms and armor supporting the all of the above

which ever one has submarines and gunboats

cruise ships used as troop transports or evac ships

island fortress

ocean weather ships with arms and armor supporting the all of the above

crabbing vessels with arms and armor supporting the all of the above

all of the above doing which ever task is a necessity the most

Also unlike the cowardly contrys who only shoot to sink because they are worried about losing crew lives, or that they will lose and the enemy take their ship instead, but also with drop ships gunboats and helicopters doing it also sometimes, most of my tactics would be all about boarding and capturing.
