Fleet problem
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Fleet problem was the term by the U.S. Navy to describe each of twenty one large-scale naval exercises conducted between 1923 and 1940. They are labeled with roman numerals, as in Fleet Problem I through Fleet Problem XXI. A twenty-second Fleet Problem exercise scheduled for 1941 was canceled because of the Second World War.
The fleet problems were usually once a year exercises in which U.S. naval forces would engage in mock battles. One or more of the forces would play the part of a European or Asian navy. They were the culmination of the Navy's annual training maneuvers.
