Admiral of the Fleet is a rank of the British Royal Navy and other navies, which equates to the NATO rank code OF-10. The rank evolved from the ancient sailing days of the Royal Navy. The fleet was divided into three divisions and each designated a colour, that of Red, White, or Blue. Each coloured division was assigned an Admiral, who in turn had command over a Vice-Admiral and a Rear Admiral.

  • Admiral of the Fleet is a rank of the British Royal Navy and other navies, which equates to the NATO rank code OF-10. The rank evolved from the ancient sailing days of the Royal Navy. The fleet was divided into three divisions and each designated a colour, that of Red, White, or Blue. Each coloured division was assigned an Admiral, who in turn had command over a Vice-Admiral and a Rear Admiral. The Admiral of the Fleet, therefore, commanded the Admirals of the various divisions and thus, the entirety of the Fleet. Between 1795 and 1827 the head of the Royal Navy was known as the Admiral of the Fleet, a position later given the name First Sea Lord. Routine appointments to the rank (and its equivalents in the other British services) ceased in 1996; however, it does still exist and those who have already been appointed are unaffected by this cessation. Admiral of the Fleet is equivalent to a 5 star rank and has a NATO ranking code of OF-10, equivalent to a Marshal of the Royal Air Force or a Field Marshal in the British Army. Admiral of the Fleet is also used as a title in some of the world's militaries for the most senior officer of the fleet or Commander-in-Chief of the Navy. In the German Kriegsmarine of the Second World War, the equivalent rank was Grand Admiral.
  • Almirall de la Flota és un rang de la Marina Reial britànica i d'altres marines. El rang ha evolucionat des del antics temps de la Marina Reial. La flota estava dividia en 3 divisions, cadascuna designada per un color: Vermell, Blanc i Blau. Cada divisió estava assignada a un Almirall, que al seu torn tenia un Vicealmirall i un Contraalmirall. L'Almirall de la Flota, per tant, comandava els Almiralls de les diverses divisions i, per tant, la integritat de la flota. Entre 1795 i 1827 el cap de la Marina Reial era conegut com l'Almirall de la Flota, i posteriorment adquirí el nom de Primer Lord del Mar. Els nomenaments rutinaris al rang (i als seus equivalents als altres serveis britànics) van cessar el 1996. L'Almirall de la Flota és un rang de 5 estrelles i té el codi de rang OF-10 a la OTAN, equivalent a Mariscal de la Reial Força Aèria o a Mariscal de Camp de l'Exèrcit britànic. Almirall de la Flota és també usat en altres exèrcits del món pel màxim oficial de la flota o pel Comandant en Cap de l'Armada. A la Kriegsmarine alemanya de la Segona Guerra Mundial, el rang equivalent era el de Gran Almirall (Großadmiral)
