List of active Indonesian Navy ships

All the Indonesia Navy (Indonesian: Tentara Nasional Indonesia-Angkatan Laut, TNI-AL) vessels are named with the prefix KRI (Kapal Perang Republik Indonesia or Naval Vessel of the Republic of Indonesia). Smaller sized boats with light armaments usually have the prefix KAL (Kapal Angkatan Laut or Naval Vessel of the Indonesian Navy). The classes are often named after lead ships or the first ship commissioned.
The Navy has a traditional naming convention for its ships. Moreover, the ship's type and missions can be identified by the first number on the ship's three-digit hull number, which is located at the bow and the stern of a vessel. The naming convention is such as:
The submarines are named after weapons in mythology and hull number beginning with 4.
Surface ship are typically named after a National Hero of Indonesia or other historical figures of Indonesia and hull number beginning with 3.
Amphibious Warfare fleet hull are typically number beginning with 5. LSTs with helipads and LPDs with wider flight decks are generally used for transport, whereas the reverse is used for amphibious warfare. Command ship is named after national figure, LPD is named after a maritime city, and LST is named after a bay.
Fast attack craft are a small vessels that are used in a hit-and-run naval strategy and typically hull number beginning with 6. Missile boat are named after traditional weapons of Indonesia. Torpedo boat are named after wild animals.
The list below mentions ships that are considered as KRI because they are equipped with heavy and adequate armament or equipment and also hull number beginning with 8. The Indonesian Navy also has numerous smaller patrol boats that classify as KAL. These types of boats were used as a secondary fleet to maintain the law of Indonesian coastal sea. Most of these smaller boats are lightly armed and better known domestically as PC or Patroli Cepat (Fast Patrol) vessel. There are also even smaller boats with Patkamla (Patroli keamanan laut) prefixes or Marine security patrol and armed with only machine guns. These boats are mainly used to patrol around various TNI AL naval bases or Lanal (Pangkalan TNI AL) across the Indonesian archipelago. Due to the sheer number of Lanal located inside Indonesian territory, TNI AL sources some of its patrol vessels (mostly Patkamla or rarely KAL vessels) from local shipbuilding industry in the region around its bases' location. This resulted in a varied bunch of ship classes and designs based on different standards adopted by various ship builder. Patrol boats are named after fish (Pari class, Sibarau class, Cucut class, etc.), snake (Boa class, Krait class, etc.), and small islands of Indonesia. The list below does not reflect the actual number of patrol vessels used by Indonesian Navy due to various factors, such as insufficient open-source data of some vessels and the lack of coverage by most national or international publications on patrol boats smaller than 18 meters (mostly Patkamla vessel), which are often converted from locally sourced boats near its Lanal location.
Minesweeper Fleet are named after every island begin with letter "R", letter "F" (mine countermeasure vessel) and hull number beginning with 7.
Support fleet are typically hull number beginning with 9 and named after a national doctor heroes (hospital ship), mythical figures (training ship), constellation star (research ship), oil field city (oil replenishment ship), volcanoes (tugs).

On 12 September 2023, Submarine Manufacturing and Products Ltd (SMP), a UK based manufacturer and supplier of diving and subsea rescue equipment, they will provide its new Submarine Rescue System (SRS) to the Indonesian Navy. The SRS will be hosted on a mothership designed by independent design and engineering consultancy, Houlder and delivered by its Indonesian strategic partner, BTI Defence. The three-year build contract will include the SRS, centered around SMP's new SRV-F Mk3 rescue submersible. The SRV-F Mk3 has been developed as a hybrid system which is capable of deployment both by air and on its mothership. When deployed by air, the rescue submersible can be towed to and from the distressed submarine's location without needing to be recovered to deck, it can also dive to depths of 500m and able to carry up to 50 rescuees at a time.
The custom build of the mothership will take place in region, along with the associated expert training for the Indonesian Navy who will operate the system when it is in service. The mothership is fitted with a suite of support equipment, including a handling system, an advanced Transfer Under Pressure (TUP) system and a dedicated Decompression Chamber, enabling the immediate medical attention and treatment of rescued personnel.
The mothership includes an aft working deck arrangement and a large, dedicated operations room with an attached communications suite, which has a clear view over the working deck to support rescue operations. The design also incorporates multiple small boats for rescue duties and a helipad that takes the appropriate medium-to-large sized rescue helicopters. The ship will have a large permanent hyperbaric chamber and a dedicated 10 berth hospital. Permanent onboard accommodation for up to 90 people with over 30 spare berths available and separate accommodation for rescued personnel, with up to 50 berths. The vessel will feature a dedicated closed hangar with climate control for rescue equipment. This ensures the equipment is protected from the environment and remains in optimal condition. It can also be maintained more easily and ensures crew comfort is maximized whilst conducting rescue tasks, an important consideration for equatorial operations.
On 10 February 2022 the Indonesian Minister of Defence Prabowo Subianto and his French counterpart Florence Parly witness the signing of Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) between Kaharuddin Djenod, CEO of PT.

On 28 March 2024, Indonesia choose Naval Group and PT. PAL to strengthen the capabilities of the Indonesian Navy with two Scorpène Evolved full lithium-ion battery (LiB) submarines to be built fully in Indonesia's PT. PAL shipyard, through a transfer of technology from Naval Group.

Accommodation for a crew of 31 and will have 6 torpedo tubes and can take up 18 weapon payloads. The submarine will have maximum submerged speed exceeding 20 knots and can attain a maximum diving depth of over 300 m. The vessels also boast an autonomy exceeding 78 days on an 80-day mission and can remain submerged for more than 12 days. The adoption of full lithium-ion technology in the energy system allows for higher energy efficiency, reduced charging time, and increased tactical mobility regardless of the state of charge.
