The Army of Hyarrostar is all together 7200. They are renowned for their courage and strength in Battle.
2000 archers
2000 cavarlry
2000 swordmen
1200 ships
The Ships in the navy are as follows:
Galleasses
Galleasses are exclusively men-of-war, used as galley fleet flagships. The oars are usually only used when moving in or out harbours, or along rivers and streams. Nùmenòrean galleasses are usually rigged in the way of a carrack. Galley-type armoured ram is fitted to the bows and the overhanging deck is used to board the enemy ship. Some galleasses have armoured forecastles with naptha throwers.
Length: 120' ( m). Beam: 18' (5 m).
Displacement: 280 tons. Sails: 5 square, 2 lateen. Crew: 70. Place to people: 120
Provisions: 60 days.
Sailing speed: 1-10 knots.
Armament: 1 naphta thrower and 6 heavy ballistae in armoured forecastle, 1 catapult and 6 slings.
Cairon
Cairon, greatships are almost exclusively man-of-wars. It differs from umbarean carracks with its heavy armoured ram under the bowsprit, a feature borrowed from the galley. The accommodation towards the stern is a massive sterncastle about three decks high, with many crossbows or small ballistas.
Length: 126' (38 m). Beam: 33' (10 m). Depth: 16' (5 m).
Sails: 5 square-rigged, 2 lateen
Crew: 65. Place to people: 150. Cargo: 500 tons.
Provisions: 30 days. Sailing speed: 1-10 knots.

Sails: 5 square, 3 lateen. Crew: 100. Place: 180. Provisions: 40 days. Sailing speed: 3-12 knots.
Aercrist
Aercrist and other nùmenòrean war galleys have longer keels, larger sails and more soldiers than umbarean dromons, but they lack in their maneuverability and seaworthiness. Nùmenòrean galleys are usually armed with two catapults and two heavy ballistae.
Length: 140' (43 m) Beam: 18' (5 m). Displacement: 195 tons. Sails: 2 lateen. Crew: 240 rowers, 50 sailors. Place to people: 70. Rowing speed: 3-7.5 knots. Sailing speed: 2.5-10 knots. Provisions: 10 days.
Gaervinas
Gaervinas ,giant carrack of númenorean design, pinnacle of both shipwright's and seaman's skill in Nùmenor. Too large and expensive to be used profitably for trade ventures and uncommon as a warship due to its cost, it is mainly used as a flagship for a large group of smaller ships.
Length: 144' (44 m). Beam: 45' (13.7 m).
Sails: 7 square, 5lateen. Crew: 120. Place to people: 300. Provisions: 30 days. Sailing speed: 3-10 knots.

Sails: 2 square-rigged, lateen in mizzenmast.
Crew: 30 (5 officers, 25 seamen). Cargo: 120-200 tons. Provisions: 90 days. Sailing speed: 3-8 knots.
