== '''Convoy Escort Fleet''' ==
== '''Colonial Defence Force''' ==
This group of warships are classed as a Fleet for logistical reasons, however in reality they usually operate independently or in small groups. The primary role of these ships is to protect merchant vessels and fleet supply vessels outside of coastal waters from attack by convoy raiders such as submarines. Certain ships from the Main Battle Fleet and Coastal Defence Fleet may be assigned to this Fleet if there is a shortage of dedicated convoy escort ships, these ships are listed in italics. For certain highly important and/or highly vulnerable convoys, more powerful warships such as cruisers and capital ships may be used to assist in convoy escort duties.
The Colonial Defence Force is a collection of smaller forces scattered throughout Madagascar's Colonial Territories and not a single unified Fleet. Hence why it is classed as a Force. Their role is primarily to carry out colonial policing, while during wartime they're also required to fight off small craft such as motor boats and to deter enemy forces from trying to invade, such as laying mines around the colonies and torpedoing any fleet warship that may try to attack and occupy a colony. This Fleet consists of just the ships permanently stationed in Colonial Territories, not every ship that could be used to defend the Colonial Territories.

=='''Convoy Escort Force'''==
This group of warships are classed as a Force as they usually operate independently or in small groups, not as a combined Fleet. The primary role of these ships is to protect merchant vessels and fleet supply vessels outside of coastal waters from attack by convoy raiders such as submarines. Certain ships from the Main Battle Fleet and Coastal Defence Fleet may be assigned to this Fleet if there is a shortage of dedicated convoy escort ships, these ships are listed in italics. For certain highly important and/or highly vulnerable convoys, more powerful warships such as cruisers and capital ships may be used to assist in convoy escort duties.
