The Royal Arcerion naval Service's main objective is the protection of Arcer maritime sovereignty, assisting with power projection, and ensuring the continuance of maritime commerce through Arcer and international waterways in times of war. It regularly trains in core competencies as a primarily green-water Navy, focusing on tasks such as area and sea lane denial, mine warfare (both mine laying and mine countermeasures), maritime patrol, and subsurface warfare (encompassing both submarines and anti-submarine warfare). One of the implied tasks that comes from the Navy's mission statement revolves around the continuance of maritime commerce to Arcerion during a period of armed conflict, meaning that Arcer ships must be adept at both convoy escort, patrol, and surface-surface/surface-to-air warfighting at sea.

His Majesty's Arcerion Naval Service Station Port Hughes serves as the basic training facility of Arcerion's sailors and naval officers. While naval officers will complete their academic education at the Royal Arcerion Military College, their practical seafaring and leadership education is done through HMANSS Port Hughes. After initial intake and testing, personnel are separated into multiple service streams, from Naval Warfare, to engineering and logistics, depending on their suitability based on entry testing and fitness. Officers and enlisted members who wish to join the Arcerion Regiment of Marine Commandos also self-identify during this period so they can attend Assessment and Selection programs after their initial training phase.

''Main Article: [[Warrington Strait]]''
The Warrington Strait remains a key choke point both for military and commercial vessel navigation in the Malentine/Songun Seas. The continued patrol and defense of the Warrington Straits reflects the importance of it economically not only to Arcerion, but also to the wider international community that borders on the Malentine Basin. The Strait forms a natural canalization and is responsible for some of the highest rates of maritime traffic in Ixnay, and the Royal Arcerion Naval Service works with large corporations and maritime navigation authorities to ensure that it remains a safe passageway for freighters, oilers, and large container ships.
