The Finnish Navy (Finnish: Merivoimat, Swedish: Marinen) is one of the branches of the Finnish Defence Forces. The navy employs 2,300 people and about 4,300 conscripts are trained each year. Finnish Navy vessels are given the ship prefix "FNS", short for "Finnish Navy ship", but this is not used in Finnish-language contexts. The Finnish Navy also includes coastal forces and coastal artillery.
The deeds of the Finnish Infantry in 1939 against the Soviet juggernaut during the fabled “Winter war” are well known. Lesser known is that at sea, the situation was as desperate with the Finns suffering a numeric inferiority of almost twenty to one. Despite their small size, the Finnish Navy (including its coastal forts) managed to inflict losses and disrupted Soviet merchant shipping during both the Winter and Continuation wars.
