Common card · No. 347825

The Lithuanian Navy (Lithuanian: Lietuvos Karinės jūrų pajėgos; formally: Lithuanian Naval Forces) is the naval arm of the Lithuanian Armed Forces. Though formally established on 1 August 1935 its roots stretch back as far as naval engagements on the Baltic Sea in the Medieval period. Lithuanian naval units saw some service with Soviet naval forces during World War II, and the Naval Forces has been re-established in its own right and continues to expand since Lithuania's independence in 1990.
