AN OVERVIEW OF NAVAL SHIPS

Dr. Khandakar Akhter Hossain

Abstract: The navy is a costly endeavor that typically employs advanced technology and combat tactics. Naval or war ships are specifically crafted for naval combat and peacetime roles. They differ from merchant ships in terms of purpose, design, construction, operation, and deployment. Warships serve as the primary means of projecting military power at sea and along coastal areas. Navy ships are typically constructed using specialized steel alloys that enhance their resilience to damage during enemy attacks. Most naval platforms or war ships are equipped with reliable and redundant propulsion systems, advanced weapon and sensor systems, with the exception of troop transporters. Warships are capable of operating independently or in conjunction with a squadron of specialized ships, with the fleet commander traveling aboard the flagship. These powerful ships, known as the fleet, are the most potent vessels in the group. Navy ships are classified into different categories based on their capabilities, size, and purpose . Naval ships have been designed since ancient times to be faster and more stable than merchant ships and to carry offensive weaponry. They range from massive aircraft carriers to agile fast attack crafts. Among the various naval platforms, submarines are the stealthiest, powerful, formidable, and expensive. The navy possesses a diverse array of ships in its fleet , including well-known types such as aircraft carriers, submarines, assault ships, destroyers, frigates, corvettes, and mine counter vessels.
