Sanaman Armed Forces (Third Republic)

Organisation

The federal armed forces consist of three branches as well as one independent service: the Federal Army, Federal Air Force and Federal Navy. The independent service is the Joint Medical Service. The Federal Coast Guard is a quasi-military uniformed law enforcement organisation in close cooperation with the navy, while the Border Protection Service is also a quasi-military organisation responsible for border security. With the exception of the last two organisations the various services and units are still under formation as of 1675.

Equipment

Most equipment utilised by the SFAF was transferred from SALAD, and was acquired either initially during the guerrilla warfare phase against the Modanese authorities and the Imperial Forces or later obtained from Benacia Command under the notorious Oil for Arms agreement negotiated between the guerrillas and representatives of the Black Legions during the early phases of the Kalirion Fracture. The federal government has also set up an arms production cooperative, Sanama Arms Industries, primarily to produce small arms, but with a view to produce other military hardware in the future.
