The ZERO was the main Japanese fighter plane during world war two, for both the Navy and Air Force.
Their most famous airplane was the "Zero" Fighter; A6M5 Zero, the word "Zero" indicating the number "0" as that was the year the fighter plane was adapted by the Imperial Navy in 1940.
The Nimrod is an maritime patrol plane that is more of a bomber plane with heat seeking Sidewinder air-to-air missiles for self defense instead of a actual fighter plane. B-52's with 50 caliber machine guns shot down North Vietnamese MIG fighters in 1972, that doesn't make the B-52 bomber (with machine guns) a fighter plane. The world's biggest fighter plane is probably the F-14 Tomcat flown only by Iran (put in to storage in Arizona by the USA) or the F/A-18E/F Super Hornet flown by the US Navy and possibly other countries.
The Chinese Navy are a branch of military which work for the Chinese government. Like most navies, the Chinese Navy is their branch which specializes on sea missions.
