'''Rear Admiral'''(''abbrev'': '''RADM''') is an [[flag]] paygrade within the [[Royal Manticoran Navy]], [[Grayson Space Navy]], and the [[Republic of Haven Navy]]. It holds the equivalent military paygrade of [[F-2]] within {{trmn}} and can be a headquarters department head or command of a ship squadron or fleet. A rear admiral is always referred to as an "admiral."
