The Gassasinian Defence Force is the unified armed forces of Gassasinia, being responsible for defending Gassasinia and its' people from external threats, along with supporting international peacekeeping efforts and humanitarian aid. The current Gassasinian Defence Force was formed in 1980 from the previous Gassasinian Royal Armed Forces, and drew its' commanders, officers and soldiers from a diverse range of backgrounds to ensure that the Gassasinian Defence Force not just represented upper-class Christian interests, but the interests of the people as a whole.
Based on a similar doctrine to the Bak armed forces, the the Gassasinian Defence Force is a well-equipped, well-organised and well-trained - albeit small force - relying on effective organisation and technological advantage over more numerous enemies. Officers have much more freedom to act on their own initiative, allowing for greater flexibility on the field compared to other Arab armies who are often constrained out of fear of a military coup. It is well-equipped with a variety of modern armoured armoured fighting vehicles and aircraft developed in Bakyern and Kentalis and often modified to meet Gassasinian needs. The Gassasinian Defence Force mainly consists of a professional force of volunteer soldiers, with conscription being abolished in 1977 by the Defence Force Act.
The Gassasinian Defence Force is known its' contributions to world-wide peacekeeping operations, having been present in some capacity in a diverse variety of internationally-lead peacekeeping operations since the 1980's. The Gassasinian Defence Force is also important in ensuring internal security in Gassasinia, in particular helping the Gassasinian National Police to patrol the nation's borders and co-ordinate counter-terrorist operations.
History
The Royal Gassasinian Armed Forces, the predecessor of the modern day Gassasinian Defence Force, was formed after 1949 from the Royal King's [ARAB]n Rifles Regiment after the fall of imperial rule in Gassasinia. Throughout its' early years, the Royal Gassasinian Armed Forces came to be known as corrupt and elitist - being primarily intended to protect the interests of the [CHRISTIAN] elite - but also fiercely efficient and brutally repressive against those who threatened the Christian order.
In the lead-up to the 1970's, various far-right paramilitary groups who were not officially part of the Gassasinian Royal Armed Forces but often attached to the Royal Gassasinian Police Service were formed, which often worked alongside the army and were responsible for a variety of atrocities before and during the Insurgency in Western Gassasinia. Throughout the insurgency, the army proved to be highly effective, using a combination of air and ground mobility, and good organisation to effectively push the main paramilitary groups from their hideouts in major cities to the mountains. Although most officers were Christians or Jews, at least half of the basic infantrymen were Muslims who had enlisted for benefits and pay.
It was the very Gassasinian Royal Armed Forces that deposed King Hashim II when in 1975, soldiers of the Gassasinian Army entered parliament and arrested the Prime Minister on orders of the Supreme Court.
The Gassasinian Defence Force was formed in 1977 by the Defence Force Act of 1977, with the Prime Minister as its' commander-in-chief. From the start, the Gassasinian Defence Force was designed to incorporate not just the dominantly Christian officers of the old army, but officers from a variety of ethno-religious and economic backgrounds, with selection being based on merit rather than status. Although most the soldiers were taken from the old Gassasinian Royal Armed Forces, the army also integrated some former soldiers and officers of more moderate opposition paramilitary groups which had disarmed themselves following the end of the insurgency. With Bak assistance, the Gassasinian Defence Force was retrained and reorganised, and a diverse selection of officers was introduced. While the branches retained their royal title, the Gassasinian Defence Force's name was chosen to represent the people of Gassasinia rather than the Christian monarch, and also to emphasise the defensive nature of the armed forces as a protective precaution of a peaceful nation.
The Gassasinian Air Force is an operator of both MkF16 and MkF18 high-tech stealth fighter aircraft, along with the advanced MkF99 multirole fighter jet.
Technology
The Gassasinian Defence Force's military outlook relies heavily on the use of superior technology, firepower and support to make up for their smaller manpower. As such, the Gassasinian Defence Force has advanced electronical, drone and cyber warfare capabilities. Notably, the No. 4 Strategic Aerospace Group is known for its' use of advanced drone, missile and satellite warfare technology.
The principle domestic suppliers for the Gassasinian Defence Force are Gassasinian Defence Systems, Zhayed Heavy Industries and Hacohen Microsystems. Rather than designing its' own arms, the Gassasinian defence industry generally tends to modify and upgrade foreign bought and licensed arms for its' own needs. Although not considered a major arms exporter, Gassasinian does have some arms exports, mainly in the area of electronic suites for electronic suites and modification and upgrades for pre-existing armoured fighting vehicles.
Domestic Suppliers
Gassasinian Defence Systems
Gassasinian Defence Systems is a partially government-owned corporation, responsible for servicing aircraft of the Royal Gassasinian Air Force, along with providing some upgrades to foreign equipment, and manufacturing indigenous arms for the Armed Forces. Furthermore, Gassasinian Defence Systems is contracted to service and maintain Mehravan Air Force aircraft, especially Bakyern MkF3 and Kentalian E-40 fighters that Gassasinia sold second-hand to Mehrava.
As of recent, Gassasinian Defence Systems has picked up manufacturing of spare parts for the IAC-120/BT main battle tank, owing to difficulties in acquiring spare parts since the outbreak of the Vescarium Civil War.
Gassasinian Defence Systems is also responsible for rebuilding, renovating and upgrading Chieftian and Centurion tanks, and has been involved in converting Centurion and Chieftain tanks to APCs, bridge layers and armoured recovery vehicles.

MkF18-GA
The MkF18-GA is a specially designed variant of the Bak MkF18 multi-role fifth generation stealth fighter jet. Having been one of the original financial contributors to the MkF18's development, Gassasinia has special considerations for maintenance, along with their own special variant of the fighter designed for Gassasinian specifications. Having contributed significantly to the electronics, sensors and computer systems of the MkF18, the MkF18-GA was designed as a joint project between the Bak company Asdern, Hacohen Microsystems and Gassasinian Defence Systems as a modification of the MkF18A model, which introduces a plug-and-play system allowing Gassasinian electronics and jamming systems to be easily integrated into the aircraft.
Gassasinia became one of the earliest operators of the MkF18 fighter in 2017 after the first delivery of 12 fighter aircraft, Since then, Gassasinia has acquired 13 more aircraft and plans to acquire as many as sixty more.
Challenger-2GA1
The Challenger-2GA1 is a Gassasinian-specialised variant of the Vescarium-designed IAC-120/BT2 main battle tank, which has been upgraded with Gassasinian features to create the most advanced variation of the IAC-120/BT2 battle tank to date. In particular, its' upgrades include:
- Trophy Active Protection System
- LAHAT anti-tank missiles, which are designed to be able to be fired from the 120mm cannon.
- Advanced computer systems, including fire-control and gun processing systems.
- Advanced sensor and camera systems, including an advanced 3rd Generation thermal imaging.
These upgrades are argued to make the Challenger-2GA1 one of the most advanced and best protected tanks in current use.

Notable Units

Parachute Regiment
Long-Range Patrol Regiment
The Long-Range Patrol Regiment is a notable unit of the Gassasinian Army. Consisting of four battalions, Long-Range Patrol Regiment is a lightly-equipped force, generally travelling in reconnaissance vehicles or on-foot.
The Long-Range Patrol Regiment was formed in 1962, and its' ranks were drawn from northern Bedouin tribes. During the Insurgency in Western Gassasinia, the Long Range Patrol Regiment flourished as many Bedouins strongly disliked the left-wing groups as they viewed them as a threat to their predominantly tribal and nomadic lifestyle, and weren't subject to the same conditions as the heavily exploited working class.
The Long-Range Patrol Regiment during the Insurgency gained a strong reputation for the hardiness of its' troops, who could stealthily track insurgents on-foot through mountainous terrain for weeks. Even to this day, the Long-Range Patrol Regiment retains its' reputation as an elite unit of the Gassasinian Defence Force, and although the unit is home to many urban Arabs, Mehravans and Jews, the regiment remains predominantly Bedouin.
Women, LGBT+, Vegetarians and Vegans in the Defence Force
Women
As of the Defence Force Act of 1977, women are allowed to serve in combat-positions in the Gassasinian Armed Forces. However - very few women serve within front-line combat roles, instead more often serving in rear-echelon support roles. Studies conducted by the Ministry of Defence in 2005 suggested that women often display greater discipline, motivation and marksmanship, but suffer in physical strength. Despite being legally equal to men in terms of opportunity, women are under-represented in the upper-ranks of the Gassasinian Defence Force. However, despite this disparity, in 2016 Wafiya Nawra al-Hashim became the first female general in the Defence Force.
Under the Equality Act of 2003, the Gassasinian Defence Force not only has the responsibility to subject women to the same treatment as men, but also to actively tackle sex-based discrimination.
LGBT+
Since 1983, homosexuals and bisexuals have been allowed to serve in the Gassasinian Defence Force under a policy of Don't ask, don't tell. However, since 2003 openly gay and bisexual soldiers have been allowed to serve in the Defence Force, with the Equality Act of 2003 introducing sexual orientation and gender identity to the list of protected categories and giving the Defence Force the responsibility of tackling orientation and gender identity-based discrimination. However, in spite of legislation, reports of homophobic and transphobic abuse are still common, albeit have been significantly declining since the early 2000's.
In 2013, the Defence Force admitted its' first transgender male-to-female recruit as a woman.
Vegetarians and Vegans
As with the last categories, vegetarians and vegans are required to be given proper accommodation to their needs based on the Equality Act of 2003. Vegans are issued jumpers and berets which are made of synthetic wool as opposed to sheep wool. Furthermore, vegans and vegetarians have access to animal product-free rations and catering.
Royal Military Intelligence Service
The Royal Military Intelligence Service - often referred to as the "Mukhabarat" - is the main foreign intelligence service of Gassasinia, responsible for collecting and analysing HUMINT abroad and overseas. In particular, the RMIS' interests lie in tracking potential threats to national security from foreign sources, such as rogue states, military movements, terrorist groups and Weapons of Mass Destruction. The Royal Military Intelligence Service is restricted by legislation in its' ability to spy on individuals and groups within Gassasinia's border, relying instead on its' partners within the National Police, the Counter-Terrorist Command, Internal Security Department and Constitutional Protection Department, who make up the National Security Council.
Cyberwarfare Unit
The Cyberwarfare Unit of the Royal Military Intelligence Service is the main military cyberwarfare unit of the Royal Military Intelligence Service. The Cyberwarfare Unit's activities are classified, but they are suspected to be behind many cyber-attacks against identified threats to Gassasinian security, and even espionage.
Military Police
Within the Gassasinian Defence Force, there are three military police forces: the Royal Naval Police, the Royal Army Military Police and the Royal Air Force Police. The Military Police of Gassasinia is responsible for enforcing military law amongst service personnel.
Military Policemen do not have constable powers, and can only arrest military personnel - rather, Military Policemen can detain civilians, but they must be handed over to a civilian constable for arrest. The exception to this rule is when dealing with civilians subject to service discipline and civilians on Ministry of Defence property.
Military Aid to Civil Authorities
In extraneous circumstances, the Gassasinian Defence Force can be deployed with the authorisation of the Gassasinian Parliament to assist with the civilian authorities and the community as a whole. Natural disasters, major accidents and strikes have seen the military deployed in non-combative missions to protect and save lives. The Gassasinian Defence Force has been deployed in the past to assist civil authorities, in particular providing rescue, fire-fighting and ambulance services during major incidents or strikes.
Along with assistance to emergency services, another major Military Aid to Civil Authorities role is bomb defusal. During the 1960's and 1970's, tends of thousands of improvised bombs, grenades and mines were abandoned across the country which often necessitate response by the Gassasinian Royal Army's bomb disposal unit to support Civil Defence bomb disposal units.
Uniform
Standard uniform for the Gassasinian Defence Force consists of Multi Terrain Pattern fatigues, acquired through a mix of licensed production and foreign purchase, which are worn either with a field cap or boonie hat for work-purposes, or a beret coloured in correspondence with one's unit when on ceremonial and parade duties. When wearing the field-shirt for non-combat work duties, the left shoulder of the uniform bears the soldier's unit patch, whereas the right shoulder bears an IR patch of the national flag in tan and olive green colours. Additionally, on the left breast of the field-shirt is a name-tape reading the soldier's surname along with a tape on the right breast reading "GASSASINIA." Tankists and vehicle crews are issued camouflage jumpsuit coveralls and an olive green tank helmet.
Often soldiers on office work and non-combat work in colder temperatures will wear a green Commonwealth-type Woolly Pully.
Often when wearing combats, instead of wearing a field shirt soldiers will wear a half-zip combat shirt. Along with this, for protection soldiers are issued Mark 4 Osprey Body Armour and a Mark 7 helmet. Alternatively for less-intensive roles or other cases where full load isn't needed, troops are issued with an MTP harness-style MOLLE battle webbing.
Multi-terrain Pattern was adopted in 2010, replacing the tropical DPM pattern fatigues used previously. Multicam was previously adopted in 2005 in limited numbers for testing, and then in larger numbers as a stop-gap measure until MTP fatigues could be issued. To this day, Multicam is still used by certain aarmed police and cadet units which aren't directly part of the Gassasinian Defence Force.
