Military service is voluntary though conscription can be implemented in times of "national crisis when the voluntary force has been overwhelmed." This is done through the [[Emergency Conscription System]], which provides a list of military aged Volkian males to the Ministry of National Defense. Volkian males are required to register in this system from ages 18 to 26.

Volkian nuclear deterrence relies on complete independence. The current Volkian nuclear force consists of five ''Avangard'' class and ~~three~~ ''Zashchitnik'' class submarines equipped with {{Wp|submarine-launched ballistic missiles}}. In addition to the submarine fleet, the country maintains approximately 250 land based ballistic missiles in nuclear silos and on mobile launchers. Roughly 100 medium-range air-to-ground missiles loaded with nuclear warheads make up Volkia's air based nuclear weapons, 45 of which are deployed by the Volkian Air Force while 20 are deployed by the Volkian Navy via aircraft launched from the country's two ~~nuclear~~ aircraft carriers.

The country maintains a classified amount of chemical and biological weapons, with known agents including {{wp|Tabun (nerve agent)|tabun}}, {{wp|sarin}}, {{wp|ricin}}, and {{wp|botulinum toxin|botulinum}}. The Volkian government has stated that it is exploring options to destroy the country's chemical and biological agent stockpile, though it would maintain its nuclear arsenal. Volkian defense doctrine states that the country's weapons of mass destruction are for homeland defense only; the country would only use its WMDs in extraordinary circumstances.
