      Mornarica Ruske Federacije (Военно-Морской Флот (ВМФ) России) je pomorska grana Oružanih snaga RF. Sadašnja je mornarica naslijedila Mornaricu Saveza nezavisnih država, koje su naslijedile Sovjetski Savez, nakon njegovog raspada 1991. godine. Rusku mornaricu je osnovao Petar veliki (Petar I) 1696. godine. Čuvena je njegova izjava: „Vladar koji ima vojsku ima samo jednu ruku, a s mornaricom ima obadvije“. Zastava, sa simbolom Sv. Andreja, kao i većina tradicija naslijeđena je još od Petra Velikog.   

      The Russian Navy or VMF (Russian: Военно-Морской Флот (ВМФ) России- or literally Military Maritime Fleet of Russia) is the naval arm of the Russian Armed Forces. The present Russian Navy succeeded the Navy of the Commonwealth of Independent States which succeeded the Soviet Navy after the dissolution of the Soviet in 1991. The regular Russian Navy was originally established by Peter the Great (Peter I) in October of 1696. Ascribed to Peter I is the oft quoted statement: "A ruler that has but an army has one hand, but he who has a navy has both." The symbols of the Russian Navy, the St. Andrew's flag and ensign, and most of its traditions were established personally by Peter I.
