The Unnuaq Mission State has three primary military forces; the State Guard, which serves as its ground forces branch, the [[Nysdra Sea Guard]], which serves as its navy and coast guard, and the State Air Forces, which serves as the nation's air force. The military is coordinated under the Defense Administration Board.
The Unnuaq Mission State has three primary military forces; the State Guard, which serves as its ground forces branch, the [[Nysdra Sea Guard]], which serves as its navy and coast guard, and the State Air Forces, which serves as the nation's air force. The military is coordinated under the Defense Administration Board. Given the small size and scope of the armed forces, [[Urcea]]'s [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal and Imperial Army]] is largely responsible for the usual defense of the country.  


The State Guard is a small, loosely organized corps of professional officers responsible for maintaining national defense readiness. The Guard is responsible for coordinating with each Mission to establish and organize its militia, and to establish "phantom units" which militia forces are called up into upon activation. As such, the State Guard does not serve as a standing army but rather as a vehicle for which a coordinated national defense can be erected among the Missions of the country. The State Guard has two primary "standing" units, the Border Patrol Battalion and the Boreal Rescue Platoon. The Border Battalion is composed of 782 men and is largely responsible for manning a series of remote outposts along the country's northern and western border. The Border Battalion largely manages the transient, nomadic tribal groups who seasonally migrate around the country, and accordingly members of the Battalion are expected to have training in conflict resolution and cultural sensitivity to help coordinate migrations in a timely and safe manner. The Boreal Rescue Platoon is the ground-based rescue operations unit responsible for search and rescue in the northern frozen regions of the country and coordinates with the State Air Forces on all rescue efforts. Given the small size and scope of the State Guard, [[Urcea]]'s [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal and Imperial Army]] is largely responsible for the usual defense of the country. In the event of war, the State Guard would be subordinated under local Royal and Imperial Army Command for the duration of the conflict in order to have a united defensive effort of the country.
The State Guard is a small, loosely organized corps of professional officers responsible for maintaining national defense readiness. The Guard is responsible for coordinating with each Mission to establish and organize its militia, and to establish "phantom" infantry units which militia forces are called up into upon activation. These phantom units maintain active headquarters and support personnel despite the lack of actual infantry attached to the formation. As such, the State Guard does not serve as a standing army but rather as a vehicle for which a coordinated national defense can be erected among the Missions of the country. The paper strength of the collective militia units, known as the State Defense Battalion, is approximately 900. In the event of war, the Battalion would be subordinated under local Royal and Imperial Army Command for the duration of the conflict in order to have a united defensive effort of the country as part of NSTA's [[Nysdra_Sea_Treaty_Association#Defense_Coordination_Initiative_(DCI)|Defense Coordination Initiative]].

The [[Nysdra Sea Guard]] is the naval force of most [[NSTA]] members, including the Unnuaq Mission State. The Mission State pays for a portion of the Sea Guard's annual budget and provides sailors and officers for its personnel. Due to the nature of the nation, the Sea Guard's Chaplain is also always a Mission State national.
