Having a well balanced military is important. One of the most important of them is the Navy. Having a strong navy can mean the difference between a disastrous Seaborne Invasion and a swift powerful counter-attack or another civilization under your control. I have found that "Task forces of a carrier (2 fighters 2 stealth bombers), and 2-3 AEGIS cruisers. The cruisers because the have Anti submarine (ASW) capability and powerful anti surface (ASuW) capability. Add that to the carriers air force, and you have a very nice task force that can operate by itself. Now having a coastal defense force like thing consisting of several cruisers or destroyers for a basic ASW/ASuW force to protect your coasts from invasions (If they grow a pair and attempt such a feat.).
The greatest threat against you is possibly the enemy nuclear submarine force. you can combat this by figuring out where their bases are through spies. (for that go to the war academy). Knock them out before they come in range of your territory.
The task of your navy is to escort the main invasion force if they are amphibious and/or support the front through air/sea bombardment and the knocking down of enemy stacks and cities before the "big push". More in our next installment!
