Usage examples
  • Type Organization. The organization of units normally of the same type into fleets/ flotillas / groups/squadrons, divisions, and subdivisions together with assigned flagships, tenders and aircraft. Type organization is mainly for national administration and logistic purposes.
  • Administratively, several ships of the same type (e.g., destroyers) are organized into a squadron. Several squadrons in turn form a flotilla, several of which in turn form a fleet. For operations, however, many navies organize their vessels into task units (3–5 ships), task or battle groups (4–10 ships), task forces (2–5 task groups), and fleets (several task forces).
