History

###

Organization

The Royal Zalkentian Navy has multiple different organizations under it. Procurement of aircraft and ships is handled by the Naval Ordinance Bureau. However, with regards to combat services, there are three within the Navy. These branches are the Royal Zalkentian Fleet Air Force, the Royal Zalkentian Fleet Surface Arm, and the Royal Zalkentian Fleet Submarine Arm.

Royal Zalkentian Fleet Air Force

The Royal Zalkentian Fleet Air Force is a relatively new development for the Navy, as a carrier was not considered until the year 2199 due to the cost of operation. The Fleet Air Force (FAF) is primarily comprised of volunteers from the Royal Zalkentian Air Corps (RZAC), which is reflected by the equipment that is utilized. The aircraft that are used in the FAF primarily consists of modified RZAC land-based aircraft, such as the Tenrai Model 72 and LAC Type 11 Invicta. The decision to do this was to reduce the training costs for the pilots in the FAF, while still providing capable airframes and pilots to the Navy. Production of the RZN-RZAC jointly developed Tenrai SF-1 has slowly begun to ramp up in recent years, which has led to these aircraft being integrated into the FAF, slowly phasing out the Invicta. Invicta airframes have slowly ended up in the hands of the RZAC, with some ending up as combat trainers for the FAF.
