Formally organized in September 1950, the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) was initially built upon units that defected from the Republic of China Navy during the Chinese Civil War. Nominally a branch of the People's Liberation Army, their subordinate status to their ground-pounding brethren led to a variety of growing pains.
Early expansion in the 1950's was primarily the result of purchasing hand-me-down frigates and destroyers from the Soviet Navy while the People's Republic of China developed shipbuilding and naval architecture skills from within its own borders (with Soviet assistance). The PLAN remained largely focused on littoral and riverine combat until the late 1980s and the break-up of the Soviet Union. China's more prominent role in world — and naval — affairs in the years hence has led to explosive growth of the modern PLAN and development of green water capabilities that continue to expand today. The PLAN operates at least one modern aircraft carrier — purchased as surplus from the Russian Federation Navy — while developing their own carrier construction program; they launched their first nuclear ballistic missile submarine in 1981, and continue to progress improvements to their own designs of surface vessels and submarines.
The roots of the Republic of China Navy (ROCN) date back to 1912 and the establishment of the Ministry of the Navy, following the fall of the Qing Dynasty and subsequent creation of the Republic of China. The ROCN remained loyal to the Kuomintang government throughout the political chaos of the late teens and 1920's, and maintained a focus on river patrols and littoral combat, knowing it was unable to challenge the might of the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN) at sea.
Their meager forces devastated in the opening days of the Second Sino-Japanese War in 1937, the ROCN effectively ceased to exist again until the close of World War II. Re-constituted and bolstered by the transfer of decommissioned ships from Allied navies — and captured ships from the IJN — the ROCN was again decimated by Chinese internal politics, as some units defected to support Communist forces during the Chinese Civil War that broke out in March 1946. Loyal ROCN units were instrumental in assisting with and protecting the evacuation of over a million refugees from mainland China to the island of Taiwan in October 1949 following the defeat of Chiang Kai-shek's Chinese Nationalist forces at the hands of Mao Zedong's Communists.
Much to the irritation of the People's Republic of China, Western navies — such as the United States Navy — quickly developed relations with the exiled armed forces of the Republic of China and have supported them in the decades since. Transfers of technology and materiel have kept the ROCN modern and relevant as concerns developed in the early 1990's around the PLAN's ability to potentially blockade the island. Local shipbuilding lacks the capability to deliver submarines, but has successfully built and commissioned a mix of frigates, corvettes, and local patrol vessels into ROCN service. Combined with a mix of surplus vessels purchased from the United States, France, Germany, and the Netherlands, the modern ROCN continues to pursue a mission of local littoral control and anti-blockade measures in the shadow of an expanding PLAN.
Republic of Korea Navy
Founded on 10 September 1945 — during the opening days of the Indonesian National Revoultion — the Republic of Indonesia Navy was initially comprised primarily of Indonesian sailors with experience serving in the Royal Dutch Navy.
After pressured by both British Empire and France, who occupied her neighbour countries. Siam started to reforming their Military. The Royal Thai Navy (RTN) also known as Royal Siamese Navy (before Siam renamed to Thailand) founded on 1875. Although the RTN still don't have any state-of-art warships in services until post World War 1. Siamese citizens donated money for King Mongkut to purchase state-of-art R-Class destroyer from the British. RTNS Phra Ruang is the First state-of-art warship serviced in the RTN.
Siam later ordered Japan to constructing two monitors, two submarines, and small amount of destroyers. these ships involved in Franco-Thai war and coup led by Pleak Phibunsongkhram; Who changed the country's name from Siam into Thailand. These ships is also involved in World War 2, Which Thailand joined Axis side under Japan's pressure.
After World War 2, Communism expands over Indochina peninsula. the United States supports Thai military to hold communist party and stopped communist expansion to another Southeast Asian countries. The RTN take actions in Korean War and Vietnam War with cooperation with South Korea and South Vietnam perspectively.
The modern RTN is developing countinously, they're currently the Only Southeast Asian nation to operating an aircraft carrier, the RTN also able to construct their own destroyers and frigates.
