Historic naval fleet (6)

I believe the answer is:

armada

(Other definitions for armada that I've seen before include "A great fleet - Spain had one" , "Large flotilla" , "Spanish war fleet" , "Naval fighting force" , "Spanish fleet sent in 1588 to escort an invasion of England" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today.
