The main parts of a navy anchor are the shank, flukes (also known as arms), crown, stock, and ring. The shank is a long, vertical shaft that connects the crown to the stock. The flukes are the curved arms that dig into the seabed to provide stability. The crown is the top part of the anchor, and the stock is a horizontal bar that helps the anchor lay on the seabed properly. Lastly, the ring is a loop at the top of the shank for attaching the anchor chain.
