Tajik National Army

The Tajik National Army is the ground force of the military of Tajikistan. Created shortly after the Tajik civil war in February 1993, the Army has undergone heavy reforms and buildup. It is trained by personnel from Russia, France, India, and the United States.

The Army is overseen by the Tajik Defense Ministry. Many units are former militias, including several that fought the government during the Tajik civil war as part of the United Tajik Opposition.
