Historically, the Royal and Imperial Army saw the most action and was the primary focus of the nation's military efforts, but since the [[Great War]] the Navy has evolved into the branch of primary concern, given Urcea's maritime border with [[Caphiria]]. In modern times, Urcea's Armed Forces are primarily engaged in [[New Yustona]] and [[Crona]], but prior to the [[Assumption Accords]] it was heavily deployed in [[Urlazio]] and in [[Talionia]]. The Urcean military's budget exceeds $3.6 trillion dollars, among the largest in the world during peacetime but trailing [[Caphiria]].

The Royal and Imperial Army is the largest of the three branches with more than 4,000,000 active duty personnel and 4,000,000 personnel in reserves. The Army has some 5,000,000 combat and transportation vehicles of various age that can be called upon for active duty use, alongside more than 127,000 pieces of artillery and rocket artillery. The Army also has more than 78,000 aircraft for use, though the majority of these are transportation helicopters or fixed wing aircraft for transportation use.

The Army also has more than 78,000 aircraft for use, though the majority of these are transportation helicopters or fixed wing aircraft for transportation use. The senior unit of the Army is the [[Life Guard (Urcea)|Life Guard]], which serves as the personal protection of the [[Apostolic King of Urcea]] and [[Government of Urcea]] and also serves as the most prestigious posting for an officer or enlisted personnel.

The Royal Navy, between its primary service and its attached Royal Marine Corps, has the most active duty personnel of the three branches, with more than 4,700,000 active duty personnel (of these, more than 600,000 are marines) and 1,500,000 reservists (of which more than 354,000 are marines). The pride of the Urcean Armed Forces, the Navy has 1,557 combat vehicles including 54 aircraft carriers, and also maintains 178 amphibious assault and command vessels with 75 other miscellaneous vessels. The Navy, not including the Marine Corps, maintains 24,236 aircraft, including 8,258 fighter aircraft. The Royal Marine Corps maintain more than 124,000 various vehicles, including more than 1,100 tanks and 5,300 aircraft with vertical takeoff and landing capability.

The Royal Air Force is the smallest of the three branches, with more than 3,400,000 active duty personnel and more than 1,000,000 reservists. The Royal Air Force maintains some 47,108 pieces of equipment, including 10,578 fighters, 1,826 bombers, 2,938 ground attack aircraft, 11,132 cargo planes among other varieties of aircraft. The Royal Air Force was previously known as the ''Royal Air Fleet'' and was founded in 1904 for the purposes of coordinating all military airships. The Royal Air Force maintains the navy-based ranks from the Air Fleet era, making it similar to the [[Burgundie|Burgoignesc]] [[Royal Air Service]] in that respect.

The Air Force also oversees the [[Royal Orbital Service and Space Command]], Urcea's space program.

In addition to its conventional armed forces, the [[Armed Forces of the Apostolic Kingdom of Urcea]] are estimated to have more than 7,500 warheads of various types, though it is surmised that not all of them are active. Given Urcea's 136 active ballistic missile submarines, it's estimated that of the 7,500, at least 3,264 are submarine-based, with the remainder being strategic bomber or intercontinental ballistic missile based.
