The Axdelian Army is the principle land warfare force of the Axdel Armed Forces. The force is primarily tasked with the defence of the nation, though it is well capable of overseas deployment and is an able invasion force. The Army has the highest ratio of Norogradian to Axdelian Weaponry, and is currently utilising its budget to modernise and replace all of the currently used arms.

The Axdelian Defence Drome is the primary mechanism of defence for Axdel. It consists of various arrays of anti-ballistic missiles, anti-air laser systems, fast-react artillery and experimental railguns. The dromes' purpose is to both prevent any hostile attacks on the nation and to combat any hostile forces within the nation effectively. The drome was originally created in the late 1970's following Norograds independence, where it was known as the Norogradian Defence Drome, and was designed to counter any possible future attacks from neighbouring nations after the conclusion of the [[The Auroran Imperial War|Auroran Imperial War]]. It originally consisted of fixed artillery turrets and anti-ballistic missiles, and it was not until the early 1990's that upgrades began. A nationwide electronic subnet devoted to defence was implemented, and prototype lasers were tested, however the outbreak of the Norograd civil war (Seven Days of Anarchy) and the destruction of Norograd halted development of the drome until newly formed Axdel gained stability.

The Axdel Armed Forces is quite well equipped, outfitted with a combination of pre-1996 Norogradian weaponry and modern Axdelian technology at an approximate ratio of 1:2 respectively. The armed forces enjoy a relatively large budget of A♅98bn, which is currently being utilised to replace the outdated Norogradian units of every department. The current goal is to have a 1:9 respective distribution of technology, predicted to be completed by the late 2020's, after which the military budget will subside until further development is required.

The Axdelian Army receives the 2nd largest departmental budget overall (excluding ANSA) and has the highest ratio of outdated Norogradian weaponry to modern weaponry. It's relatively low budget priority is due to the little need to update anything, notably the <s>Norogradian</s> Axdelian Defence Drome, the nations primary defence system, which remains effective and requires no modification other than digitalisation. Thus, the army is currently utilising its budget outfitting troops with the best appropriate small arms available and replacing the older Norogradian land invasion engines. Although there is little need for improvement other than digitalisation with those too, as [[Norograd]] had amassed an invasion force for a '2nd [[Auroran imperial war]]' in the early 1990's which was cut short by the civil war, thus most of the equipment remains effective today. The standard issue Rifle's are the [[wikipedia:Steyr Aug|Steyr AUG A3]] and the Steyr STM 556.

The navy receives the largest share of the military budget, and like the army there was plenty of older Norogradian ships amassed for the planned '2nd Auroran imperial war'. However unlike the army, the older Norogradian vessels were deemed unfit for conflict, and as soon as Axdel became stable huge swathes of budget went towards new ship programmes. Controversially, some of the budget was leftover humanitarian aid, however no official denunciation has happened as of yet, and is not expected. The programmes have yielded significant results, with the new vessels being highly innovative and combat effective, allowing Axdel the capability to operate a blue water navy. Today the naval budget is focussed on the construction and replacement of the older Norogradian vessels. Like the army this programme is predicted to be completed in the mid 2020's.

The Axdelian Navy is the principle sea warfare force of the Axdel Armed Forces. It consists of two fleets, the surface fleet and the sub-surface fleet. The surface fleet is comprised of the (surprise surprise) surface vessels of the navy, and the sub-surface fleet is comprised of the submarines.
