New fleet ! The Cambodian Navy

The Royal Cambodian Navy (កងទ័ពជើងទឹក ”Naval Army”) is part of Royal Cambodian Armed Forces under MoD direction and estimated 4,000 active personnel today, with a fleet of 228 boats/ships active under command of Admiral Tea Vinh. It started as the Khmer National Navy, originally an extension of the Khmer Royal Army, but it became separate in 1954. This was a pure “green navy”, performing coastal & riverine patrols and using internal waterways for internal security. In 1967 it reached a total of 1,400, with 200 as Naval Infantry.
