The Lenezan Defense Force (LDF) comprised the Lenezi armed forces from 1953 onwards. It was founded after a change in the constitution that saw a shift in its defense posture, it did however still allow preemptive strikes and to fight overseas to protect the interests of the Republic. The LDF's main responsibility is the defense of Lenezan and the protection of their foreign interests and allies. It consists of an Army, Navy, and Air Force with military police. It has a total of 225,000 active personnel and 1.1 million in reserve. They are controlled by the Ministry of Defense, with their Prime Minister as commander-in-chief.
The LDF was organized to perform a dual mission: to deal with counterinsurgency in all forms and maintain order, as well as to perpetuate a conventional military arm that could defend the republic's borders, making retaliatory strikes as necessary. As the military expanded during the 1970s, the LDF general staff was organized into six sections—finance, intelligence, logistics, operations, personnel, and planning; uniquely Lenezan medical service was made co-equal with the Lenezi Army, the Lenezi Navy, and the Lenezi Air Force. In recent years, the LDF has engaged in international peacekeeping operations with the International Congress. Tensions waning, particularly with Asota, have reignited the debate over the importance of the LDF and its relation to Lenezi society.
