Being landlocked, Switzerland does not have a navy, but it does maintain a fleet of military patrol boats, armed with two 12.7mm machine guns, numbering 10 in 2006. They patrol the Swiss lakes: Lake Geneva, Lake Lucerne, Lake Lugano, Lake Maggiore and Lake Constance. These boats are sometimes humorously referred to as the "Swiss Navy".
