Naval Dockyard


A naval base or navy base (military port) is a military base, where warships (navy ships) and naval ships are docked when they have no mission at sea or want to restock. Usually ships may also perform some minor repairs. Some naval bases are temporary homes to aircraft that usually stay on the ships but are undergoing maintenance while the ship is in port.

Often the station is merely a grouping of ships whose missions were coordinated by the senior ship
