Information from qrz page:
On November 10, 1822, the year of Brazil's Independence, the national flag was hoisted for the first time on a Brazilian warship, the Nau Martim de Freitas, later renamed Nau D. Pedro I, the first flagship ship.

Thus, the Brazilian Squadron was born, created to fight the Portuguese naval forces that were opposed to the country's independence.

Acting decisively in the consolidation of sovereignty, he also participated in the campaigns of the Empire, especially in the Paraguayan War and in the two great World Wars, always in favor of maintaining the integrity of the national territory.

The Fleet of the present seeks excellence in the technology of its naval assets and its combat resources and, at the same time, invests in the preparation of its personnel.

The Fleet, today and always, the backbone of our Naval Power, fulfills the noble mission of conducting Naval and Air Naval Operations, employing subordinate means to protect such an important patrimony of the Brazilian Nation, the immense “Blue Amazon”.
