TFB's naval code had begun to become unwieldy and the naval meta becoming stale, and combined with the numerous changes Paradox have made to Navy calculations left us at a point to need to do a major overhaul of the Naval System. We decided to kill 2 birds with one stone by reverting the majority of the Naval code to Vanilla, and patch back in the specific things that were most well received about the Navy. As such, there are far too many changes to list. Speed, Damage, Armor, Ship Slots, all of them have lots of updates. Short term expectations are for ships to be somewhat more expensive but also slightly harder to kill.

Key things in Navy we intend to keep:
- Torpedos were in a good spot where they were less accurate than Vanilla but crit harder
- Cruisers are locked to only having 1 medium/light battery on them in the turret slot
- Mines are disabled

Major Changes:
- We are going to being experimenting with having a limit to the number of carriers in a fleet so that way the deathballs aren't quite as aggressive
- Radar, Engine, and Armor is being brought closer to Vanilla balance values for now
- Naval Defines are being reworked
- Nations will have less starting research for Navy completed overall
- Fewer guns for battleships as most of them were unusable anyway
- All the Vanilla Dual Purpose changes are being brought in

For the current patch, everything above is brought in except for the following which will be in in a future patch soon:
- Naval Define Rework (The carrier stacking limit is set to 12 and we shall see how it plays out for now)
- More Attention to ship refitting, making it easier/cheaper
- Regrouping the Navy's into 1 port
