The UNSC Navy (UNSCN) is the naval warfare service of the United Nations Space Command (UNSC) and is one of five primary uniformed services of the Unified Earth Government (UEG). The Navy conducts operations throughout interplanetary, interstellar, and to a limited extent, transgalactic space, and planetside at sea, on land, and in the air as the main provider of military aerospace vessels and stations for Earth and its colonies throughout the Orion Arm. Fleet operating forces have been charged throughout its some 396 year history to ensure space supremacy in the defense coordination zones surrounding Earth, its colonies, and aligned corporate holdings, including nearby interstellar jump points and space lanes.

The Navy traces its roots back to the national space-faring fleets contributing equipment, materiel, and personnel to the United Nations prior to the 2164-2170 Interplanetary War, having cut their teeth in the Jovian Moons and Mars campaigns. In the resulting conflict the UNSC absorbed entire navies of Earth's nations into a single, regimented order of battle. In the Domus Diaspora the Navy would expand in capability courtesy of the advent of the Shaw-Fujikawa Translight Engine to embark on expeditions into what would become the Inner Colonies and conduct spacelift therein supporting colonization efforts funded by the UEG. At this time, the Colonial Military Administration (CMA) was established to defend the Inner Colonies and the looming frontier in the Outer Colonies, by law relegating the UNSC Navy to the defense of Sol. Despite this, UNSC and CMA naval forces regularly encroached on each other's spacial jurisdiction, attempting to usurp and absorb missions, equipment, personnel, and funding for their own means. By the 25th century the Earther-backed UNSC Navy had assumed authority over both Sol and the Inner Colonies, restricting their CMA counterparts to Orion's frontier. The lack of political, economic, and social autonomy in the Outer Colonies led the UNSC Navy into the Callisto Incident, sparking the decades-long Insurrection. Fleet forces waged war against a asymmetrical threat utilizing large combatant ships, disembarking and supporting Marine forces ashore, and razing entire colonies with naval gunfire and weapons of mass destruction.
