The Royal Mespalian Armed Forces (Mespalian: Mechpælæn râllizet acevoimat, French: Forces armées royales mespaliennes) is the military responsible for the defense of the Kingdom of Mespalia. It consists of the Royal Mespalian Army, Royal Mespalian Navy, Royal Mespalian Air Force and the Royal Mespalian Gendarmerie.
RMAF is based around universal male conscription, whereby all men over the age of 21 must serve 6-18 months in the Armed Forces, usually in the Army. Besides the 70,000 active duty professional soldiers, there are always around 100,000 conscripts in active service and a reserve of over seven million men, consisting of men who have already finished their service.
Besides the three main branches, the Gendarmerie, responsible for providing law enforcement services to rural areas outside of major cities is considered to be a part of the Armed Forces, though during peacetime it is under the control of the Ministry of Interior, not Defense.
Organization
Army
The Army is the largest component of the Armed Forces. Of the 69,000 active duty soldiers, roughly 37,000 serve in the Army. Around 70% of conscripts, meaning around 70,000 people, also serve in the army, meaning that the total strength of the Army at any time is 140,000.
The Army is organized into four divisions and a total of 23 brigades and various independent units.
The Navy is the second largest component of the Armed Forces, with around 20,000 active duty soldiers and 10,000 conscripts. The Navy's fleet consists of 90 ships, including 2 amphibious assault docks, 4 destroyers, 7 frigates, 4 attack submarines, 12 patrol boats, 4 minesweepers and around 60 support, research and training ships.
In addition to the main fleet, the Royal Mespalian Marine Infantry Corps and coastal artillery is also under the Navy's command.
Air Force
The Air Force is the smallest of the branches, consisting of around 15,000 active duty soldiers and 20,000 conscripts. The Air Force operates 315 aircraft in total.
Gendarmerie
There Royal Mespalian Gendarmerie is a law enforcement agency that, while officially a part of the Armed Forces, is commanded by the Ministry of Interior in peacetime. It provides services to areas outside of cities that are not served by the Mespalian Police. Unlike other branches, the Gendarmerie does not accept conscripts and its soldiers are not included in the total strength of the Armed Forces.
