Planetary Defense Force

The largest military force on Saiphan, the PDF consists of numerous regiments and local garrisons across the planet. Equipped with locally produced lasrifles and frack armor, they are not the best equipped, but their morale, training, and tenacity is formidable. Two year Mandatory service on Saiphan ensures that every settlement will have a trained garrison of PDF troops, with a population that can act as an auxiliary with common experience. Much of Saiphan's terrain consists of dense woodlands, and vast fields of crops, with few urban centers. This leaves the PDF full of mostly light wheeled and tracked fighting vehicles for maneuver warfare in the open, and relies heavily on T'au allies or Naval gunfire when they are overmatched by an opponent.
