Darrian Navy/Fleet Composition

Every shipyard within Darrian territory is encouraged to under take military contracts and produce and contribute warships for the defense of their territory. The task force approach is flexible and allows the forces to be tailored for the threats that present themselves. The Darrian forces do not typically go looking for trouble. Trouble just seems to find them.
