The Senderlian Armed Forces (abbreviated as SAF) is the combined forces of Sendersdale's army, air force, and navy. The Sendersdale Armed Forces are divided into six enviromental and strategic commands:

LANCOM (Land Command) AIRCOM (Air Command) SEACOM (Naval Command) SENCOM (Sendersdale Command) SEFCOM (Sendersdale Expeditionary Force Command) SOFCOM (Special Operations Forces Command).

It is currently unknown if EMI00, Sendersdale's Intelligence force is a part of LANCOM, it's own command, or even apart of the SAF Agreement.

The country of Sendersdale practices compulsory military service for atleast 6 months from citizens ages 16 - 20.

Army

The Senderlian Land Command is responsible for army operations within the Senderlian Forces. LANCOM maintains bases across Canada and is responsible for the largest component of the Canadian Forces Primary Reserve — the Army Reserve, often referred to as the "militia". Prior to unification of the armed forces, LANCOM was known as the Army of the Senderlian People.

The army is positioned on the six areas of Sendersdale and Rogorith. LFB Mordoza (Gallis), LFB Tugir (Logimis), LFB Sommish (Sommish), LFB Honneur (Forêt), LDB Patriotisme (Monhire/Logimis) and LDB Rogorith (Rogorith). LFB: Land Forces Base, LDB: Land Defense Base.

Currently, FAOO (Foriegn Aid and Offensive Offices) has 4 regiments on internation aid missions. The current regiments include: 2nd Provincial Reconstruction Force, the Kings Own Rifles on UN Peacekeeping missions, the 12th Provincial MedicAid Force, and the 1st DART Force (Disaster Assistance Responce Team).

Air Force

Sendersdale's Air Command (AIRCOM) is the air force element of the Senderlian Forces. AIRCOM is the descendant of the Royal Air Force of Sendersdale (RAFS), which was Sendersdale's air force from its foundation in 1924 until February 1, 1968. After 1968, the RAFS was merged with the Senderslian Army and the Royal Navy to form the Senderlian Armed Forces.

The air force is positioned on the five areas of Sendersdale and Rogorith. LFB Mordoza , LFB Tugir , LFB Sommish , LFB Honneur , and LDB Rogorith .

Navy

Sendersdale's Sea Command (MARCOM) is the naval service of the Canadian Forces, and as such, it is also the senior service of the Canadian Forces, following the traditions set by the forefathers of the country. MARCOM is the descendant of the Royal Navy which was Sendersdale's naval service from the navy's foundation in 1910 until 1 February 1968. After 1968, the RCN was merged with the army and air force to form the Senderlian Armed Forces. SEACOM's ships still bear the acronym HMS as they did before 1968.

The air force is positioned on the three areas of Sendersdale and Rogorith. LFB Mordoza , LFB Sommish , and LDB Rogorith. The navy does occasionally make long term stays at LDB Patriotisme at certain times in the year however.

   * WMD Company (WMD) - Joint Nuclear, Biological and Chemical Defence Company

Other Commands

SENCOM or Senderdale Command was created to improve response time to domestic terrorism and natural disasters. It is responsible for the management of the army, navy, and air force to ensure national security, both in emergency and routine situations.

SEFCOM or Sendersdale Expeditionary Force Command is a command only active when the country is at war. The activation of this command must be first authorized by the High Chancellor, Prime Minister, and the Senate. SEFCOM was created to bring together, under one operational command, maritime, land, air and special operations forces assets to conduct humanitarian, peace support or combat operations wherever they are required internationally. This was created recently under the New WarState Act, 2006.
