The 3rd VS-Panzer Army (German: 3. VS-Panzerarmee) is a field army-sized unit in the Rotgeheiman Verteidigungsstaffel. It is made up of two corps, one being motorized infantry and the other being armor. The primary function of the 3rd VS-Panzer Army is to serve as an armored formation, although the majority of the units within the 3rd VS-Panzer Army are motorized infantry, not armor. A total of seven divisions make up the 3rd VS-Panzer Army, altogether giving it a total of about 110,000 troops. The vast majority of troops are taken from Rotgeheim, but a small number also come from Octuagesimo Octavo.
