Sannlig Land Forces

The Sannlig Land Forces (Sannlig Landforsvarets) are the main combat element of the sannlig military. Currently it is organized in one infantry division (1st Sannlig Division) which covers light infantry, airmobile and special forces and two mechanized divisions (2nd and 3rd Sannlig Divisions) which cover the armoured and mechanized forces and form the the main combat element of the Sannlig Land Forces, as well as a separate support brigade (Joint Service Support Brigade), being tasked with specialized engineering, logistics, signal, EW and NBC missions.

Commander-in-chief, as in the other services as well, is the Minister of Defence, currently Greta Petersen, however this is only the peacetime regulation, since in wartimes this role switches to the prime minister, currently Maria Jansen. All key-decisions, e.g. deployments, procurement or manpower, are made by the Minister of Defence. The soldiers themselves are sworn in allegiance to the sannlig constitution and democracy. Current commander of the Land Forces is Lt. General Hans-Olaf Nansen.

The SLF in the current formation were established in 1949, following the 2nd Treaty of Skagerrak, and share an intense cooperation with the Ringerike Army (Ringerike Hær) due to historical conditions.
