The Dark Angels Navy is the space-based naval branch of the Dark Angels Corporation. It was one of the first programs to be created during the beginning foundations of the Dark Angels on Taurus. The Dark Angels Navy is the most funded and most powerful of all the branches in the Dark Angels Military. The main responsibilities of the Dark Angels Navy were the projection of force and the guarding of Angelian assets. These two obligations take many forms: from performing wide-scaled attacks and invasions, to escorting and supporting other branches of the military, and reconnaissance. The navy is organized into fleets, each consisting of different ship variants with specialized roles. Fleets are able to be deployed in space or in atmosphere. Led by an admiral, each fleet is expected to carry out orders and missions demanded by the Arbiter.
