The Union Defense Forces are the military forces of the Galactic Union, consisting of the Union Defense Navy and Union Defense Army. The Premier of the Galactic Union is the commander-in-chief of the Defense Forces. Union Intelligence served as the Defense Forces' intelligence-gathering and covert operations branch. Forms of a unified military in the Galactic Union existed from 9800-1000 BHT, but these were largely voluntary and controlled independently by planetary systems. The military wasn't consolidated under a jointly-controlled administration until 722 BHT with the outbreak of the Runia War forcing the Galactic Union to strengthen their command operations.
The Union Defense Forces personnel consist of both conscripts and volunteers from planets throughout the Union. Planetary governments are not required to pledge forces to the military, but many do out of loyalty and pride. Any species can join the military, though depending on the species some are enlisted to roles specific to their species' abilities. The Army is divided into Sector Armies, corps, legions, regiments, battalions, and so on. The Navy possesses an array of military warships—in particular, the Ahiri-class battle cruisers and Niana-class assault ships. They also possess varying forms of starfighters such as the ATO-210 and VIT-150.
