The '''''Duelland Armed Forces'''''
The ''Duelland Armed Forces'' is divided into a military part and a civil part with the armed forces administration. The military part of the federal defense force consists of the Duelland Army, the Duelland Navy, the Duelland Air Force, the Duelland Marines, the Joint Support Service, the Joint Medical Service, and the Cyber and Information Domain Service.
== Today == ▼
As of May 2020, the ''DAF'' has a strength of 212,100 active soldiers and 91,349 civilians, placing it among the 30 largest military forces in the world. In addition DAF has approximately 120,000 reserve personnel (2019). With Duelland military expenditures at $86.4 billion, DAF is one of the best-funded military in the world.
The role of DAF is described in the Constitution of Duelland as absolutely defensive only. Its only active role before 1990 was disaster control. Within the ''DAF'', it helped after natural disasters both in Duelland and abroad. After 1990, the international situation changed from Kuthern Revolution confrontation to one of general uncertainty and instability.
Today, after a ruling of the Federal Constitutional Court in 1991 the term "defense" has been defined to not only include protection of the borders of Duelland, but also crisis reaction and conflict prevention, or more broadly as guarding the security of Duelland anywhere in the world. According to the definition given by former Secretary of Defense Daniel Radliff, it may be necessary to defend Duelland even Aurora. This requires DAF to take part in operations outside of the borders of Duelland, as part of NSTO or the League Of Novaris and mandated by the PKFU.
== Operations ==
Currently (29 June 2020) there are somewhere around 3,200 DAF soldiers deployed in:
* Atiland
** Resolute Support Mission
*** 1,600
* Sokala
** No Fly Zone over Puntalia
*** 400 personnel
* Southern Ocean
** Anti-Piracy
*** 310 personnel
* Pacific Ocean
** Anti-Piracy
*** 200 personnel
In addition to the numbers above, 48 soldiers are on permanent stand-by for medical evacuation operations around the world in assistance of ongoing Duelland or coalition operations.
In support of Allied stabilization efforts in Atiland, DAF is also training the new Atland forces.
Since 1991, DAF has lost about 1200 troops in foreign deployments.
