Edward and Mary

Edward VI and Mary I added minimal new to their father's naval force. Despite the fact that the war fleet was included in the maneuverings after the passing of Henry VIII, it was incapable. Mary kept up the building program, the naval force performed acceptably if not extraordinarily (it didn't keep the loss of Calais) in the war with France of 1557 to 1559. Be that as it may, the marriage of Mary I and Philip II prompted exchange with Spain, permitting English shipwrights to analyze and adjust current Spanish ship outline to the needs of the English Navy as English ports were soon gone to by both Spanish warships and galleons. This would later demonstrate pivotal to the development and improvement of the race-fabricated vessel and the Elizabethan Navy that would triumph against the Spanish Armada amid the war between Protestant England and Catholic Spain.
