This clue could be a double definition.

'fast-moving' is the first definition.
(fleet can mean fast)

'task force' is the second definition.

'naval' acts as a link.
This may not be right. It may belong to one of the definitions.

(Other definitions for fleet that I've seen before include "Fast as a naval unit" , "Swift; group of ships" , "Fast - group of boats" , "collection of aircraft" , "Swift - London street" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
