| rdfs:comment | - A black-space navy is one that can project force outside the borders of its parent nation and into the orbital regions of other star systems. While what actually constitutes such a force remains undefined, there is a requirement for the ability to exercise space control at wide ranges. This also implies self-contained force protection from prowler, warship and starfighter threats and a sustainable logistic reach, allowing a persistent presence at range. Navies currently thought of as black-space navies include the UNSC Navy, the SAF Navy, and the Imperial Unggoy Navy.

| abstract | - A black-space navy is one that can project force outside the borders of its parent nation and into the orbital regions of other star systems. While what actually constitutes such a force remains undefined, there is a requirement for the ability to exercise space control at wide ranges. This also implies self-contained force protection from prowler, warship and starfighter threats and a sustainable logistic reach, allowing a persistent presence at range. While a black-space navy can project space control power into another nation's orbital regions, it remains susceptible to threats from less capable forces. Sustainment and logistics at range yield high costs and there may be a saturation advantage over a deployed force through the use of planetary-based fighter or planet-to-space missile assets, prowlers, or asymmetric tactics such as Fast Attack Craft or terrorist bombings. A black-space navy's effectiveness may also be weakened by lack of a correspondingly strong expeditionary land warfare force in the form of an army or marine corps. Navies currently thought of as black-space navies include the UNSC Navy, the SAF Navy, and the Imperial Unggoy Navy.
