The Armed Forces of the Militarized State of Mehrava (Mehrani: Amjhadâ Farzâv dâr Mizardâd Shâqdarâv Mehravâ) compromise the Army (Armêzh), Air Force (Aijhfar) and the Navy (Naghdâ) of the Militarized State of Mehrava.

The Mehravan Armed Forces are numerically the largest and arguably the most powerful in the Two Rivers Pact . These forces total about 500,000 active personnel (not including the Law Enforcement Force) plus 20,000,000 reserve and trained personnel that could be mobilized when needed. That makes a total of 20,500,000 military personnel that Mehrava could mobilize. All branches of the armed forces fall under the command of the Supreme Leader. The Ministry of Defense and Armed Forces Logistics is responsible for planning logistics and funding of the armed forces and is not involved with in-the-field military operational command.

By the early Arzhanid Dynasty, Mehrava formed it's first unified military consisting of the Ground, Naval and Air Forces. After the coup in 1985, Mehrava began purchasing some weapons from Bakyern. Later, Mehrava began establishing its own armaments industry; its efforts in this remained largely unrecognised internationally, until recently.

The Mehravan government established a five-year rearmament program in 1989 to replace worn-out weaponry from the coup in 1985. Mehrava spent 10 billion $ACU between 1989 and 1992 on arms. Mehrava ordered weapons designed to prevent other states' military to enter their land and restore the monarchy.

Defense Industry

Under the last Shah of Mehrava, Guzgân Ajhad Arzhanid, Mehrava's military industry was limited to assembly of foreign weapons. In the assembly lines that were put up by foreign firms, Mehravan workers put together a variety of helicopters, aircraft, guided missiles, electronic components and tanks. In 1973 the Mehravan Electronics Industries (MEI) was established. The company was set up in a first attempt to organize the assembly and repair of foreign-delivered weapons. The Mehravan Defense Industries Organization was the first to succeed in taking a step into what could be called a military industry by reverse engineering the RPG-7, BM-21, and SAM-7 missiles in 1979.

Nevertheless, most of Mehrava's weapons before the revolution were imported from foreign countries. Between 1980 and 1984, the Shah went on a buying spree, ordering $ACU 8 billion in weapons alone. This alarmed the foreign countries's government, which strengthened a law on arms exports in 1984 and named it the Arms Export Control Act. Still, the foreign countries continued to sell large amounts of weapons to Mehrava until the 1985 Revolution.

After the revolution, Mehrava found itself severely isolated and lacking technological expertise. Because of economic sanctions and a weapons embargo put on Mehrava by the world council, it was forced to rely on its domestic arms industry for weapons and spare parts, since there were very few countries willing to do business with Mehrava.

The Armed Forces of the Militarized State of Mehrava were put in charge of creating what is today known as the Mehravan military industry. Under their command, Mehrava's military industry was enormously expanded, and with the Ministry of Defense pouring investment into the missile industry, Mehrava soon accumulated a vast arsenal of missiles.Since 1994, it has also produced its own tanks, armored personnel carriers, radar systems, guided missiles and fighter planes.
