Local defence
The local defence component consists mainly of locally recruited volunteers who have undergone Sedunnic basic military training and reached the upper service age in the other components or those who were placed in the Ready Reserve. Most of the personnel maintain a civilian job. Volunteers without a Sedunnic basic military training can sign up for a "compact" version and join a battalion after four weeks of training. During a prolonged conflict, the local defence component is responsible for mobilising, equipping and training large amounts of volunteers. About 30,000 troops serve in the local defence.
A rapid reaction force with a response time of a few hours, it is tasked with defending against or frustrating coup de main landings or incursions. It also protects certain areas from sabotage, mans defence installations in choke points, conducts escort, intelligence and surveillance missions and direct indirect fire and emergency societal support. The component fields 37 independent battalions and regional staffs and supporting units that can form up to six brigades if needed, all organised under the III Corps.
Most battalions are designated as motorised light infantry, but some battalions in certain coastal areas operate fast amphibious assault craft as well, making them light marine infantry. All battalions have organic signals and logistics units. They share and a light artillery, reconnaissance and a basic engineer unit with the other battalions in their region.
A local defence battalion typically comprises the following units:
- 1 headquarters and signals unit
- 2-4 light motorised infantry companies
- 1 armoured personnel carrier platoon
- 1 CBRN platoon
In turn, a local defence brigade would normally comprise the following units:
- 1 headquarters and signals unit
- 3-6 local defence battalions
- Indirect fire unit (towed 120 mm mortars or 105 mm guns)
- Reconnaissance company
- Engineer unit
Local defence forces generally use light equipment and weapons, often inherited from the Maneuvre component, including anti-armour weapons and mines. They also operate FPV drones on the squad level, and some units have access to man-portable anti-ship missiles, both being considered significant force multipliers.
