History
Structure
There are currently 426,573 persons serving in the Doradan Defense Force, and has been operating with roughly the same amount of personnel that it had been serving in the Doradan Defense Force since its reorganization after the Verdean invasion. Dorado is a volunteer organization, and is legally barred from conscripting citizens until the insurgency situation is dealt with. Women are allowed to volunteer, and serve in all capacities for which they are qualified, comprising slightly over one hundred thousand persons, or one quarter of the FDD's total manpower. In recruitment, efforts have been made to limit defections to the insurgency, and as result loyalty requirements were instituted. There has been some success in these efforts, but there is still a significant problem with defections even as recently as DI 218.

Role
The current role of the Doradan armed forces is strictly defensive nature, and has been structured to engage in counter-insurgency warfare within its own borders. Due to the reconstruction of the government under Verdean occupation, almost all of its offensively orientated assets, especially long range ballistic and cruise missile, as well as anti-shipping capability, forcibly stripped by occupiers as part of the restructuring of the armed forces. The army is the primary defensive asset of the Doradan armed forces, being deployed throughout the country, largely in rural areas to combat insurgent forces, and respond to terror attacks. The Doradan naval forces are rather more focused on counter-piracy and smuggling interdiction operations in order to cut the insurgency off from sources of funding and supply. The air arm is supporting arm, largely intended to support the operations of other branches, but with a sizable interceptor force for maintaining aerial sovereignty.
