The Republic of Korea Navy is the naval branch of the ROK armed forces. Many ROK navy men revere Admiral Yi Sun Shin, who in the 16th century whacked a Japanese invasion fleet with his Turtle Boats, the world's first ironclads (no, really). The South Korean navy is currently building up its forces, including an amphibious assault ship/light carrier, to make it a blue-water navy in 2020 like that of its [[Kaiju Defense Force|eastern neighbor and rival]].
