Admiral of the Fleet or Fleet Admiral (Адмирал флoта, Admiral flota) is the highest naval (deck) rank of the Russian Federation. It is the equivalent of the Soviet naval rank of Admiral of the Fleet and the present Russian rank of General of the Army.

The rank is roughly equivalent to 4-stars Admiral ranks of other nations.

There is only one rank higher than that of Admiral of the Fleet in the Russian armed forces, namely Marshal of the Russian Federation.
