The naval yard is the Allied ship construction and maintenance facility in Red Alert.

Background

The naval yard is a structure built on pillars embedded in the seabed that combines the facilities of shipyards, dry docks and naval commands. Built exclusively by the Allies during the Second World War, these large platforms were capable of building, repairing and maintaining vast fleets of naval vessels, ranging from small gunboats through destroyers to even the mighty cruisers.

The design was very simplistic, allowing for quick setting up of a fully operational naval base unlike its counterpart, the submarine pen. After the war, while focus shifted to larger, stationary shipyards, such easily set up naval yards continued to be in use.

Game building

The naval yard builds and launches all Allied naval vessels. Damaged sea craft docked at the naval yard can be repaired for a cost. Building multiple naval yards decreases the amount of time required to produce a naval vessel.

Production

Transport Infantry and vehicle naval transport, can carry up to 5 ground units

Gunboat Light attack ship, detects submerged units

Destroyer General purpose warship, can attack air targets, and detects submerged units

Cruiser Heavy bombardment ship Requires Allied Tech Center
