About this app

The most complete reference for warships, submarines, naval aircraft, weapons, and the technology behind modern fleets — built for professionals, the defense industry, and anyone serious about naval power.

Naval Library brings open-source naval intelligence into one clean, fast app. Browse detailed profiles of vessels and systems, see who operates them and who builds them, and follow naval activity around the world. Our data is updated every day.

▸ WHAT'S INSIDE
• Warships, submarines and naval aircraft — specifications, operators, class lists and photos
• Weapons, missiles, sensors and equipment — the systems mounted on every platform
• Unmanned systems — UAVs, USVs and UUVs
• Builders and manufacturers — see the companies behind each ship and its onboard systems, with logos and links
• Infographics and cutaways — explore platforms visually
• Books, reports and documents — a curated naval library by category

▸ SHIP TRACKER (PRO)
See recent ship positions plotted on an interactive 3D globe. Double-tap to zoom to any point, filter by date, and open a ship straight from the map.

▸ COMPARE
Put two classes side by side and compare specifications row by row — displacement, length, armament, sensors and more.

▸ NAVAL ASSISTANT
Ask questions in plain language and get answers grounded in the app's data.

▸ LEARN & TEST
Sharpen your knowledge with quizzes, flip cards, and naval terms & acronyms.

I used to use this constantly, but everytime I download it again, the 'Countries' and 'compare' categories are premium, they weren't before. I understand your grubby hands need more money to keep the sight up but making it harder for the users to find Naval craft from specific countries when they could look them up by a simple search and the tap of a Wikipedia link would make your team lose views for your app, then you wouldn't get much money anymore, and you would become a forgotten memory.

Fair point, and we heard you. Standard ship and submarine profiles are free; Pro covers extras like Countries, Compare and the 3D tracker. To make that fairer, in July 2026 we cut Pro prices worldwide by up to 65%. Your early support helped build this app — we hope the new pricing feels right.

Please take away the subscription for info graphics, i payed for it i i feel that it is not worth it at all, you are paying a hundred dollar just for a few lines of imformation and a picture. I actually wanted a refund. However i am just going to let it off this time, please remove that subscription, you can earn in alot of ways, but this way is just not right.

We hear you — that price was too high. In July 2026 we cut subscription prices worldwide by up to 65%. Standard ship and submarine profiles remain free; Pro covers infographics, the 3D ship tracker and comparisons, with data updated daily. We'd be glad to have you take another look.

Very outdated information, many ships that are not in service but already entered water are not included, and even more ships that are in active service are not included or wrongly placed. Very few pictures on ships as well. All you have are simple stats of the ship which can be easily found on Wikipedia. Good idea, poorly executed.

Thanks for the honest critique — much has changed since 2019. Data is now updated daily, ship pages carry far more photos and detail, and you can flag any missing or misplaced vessel with "Suggest an Edit" right on its page. We'd be glad to have you take a fresh look.
