Recommended Posts

Does anyone have any information on how the rebuilding process is going? Number of soldiers? Military equipments in service? Command centers?

 

 

This is what I found on Wikipedia.

 

In November 2009, the European Union announced its intention to train 2 Somali battalions (around 2,000 troops), which would complement other training missions and bring the total number of better-trained Somalian soldiers to 6,000.[62] The 2 battalions are expected to be ready by August 2011.[63] On 21 April 2011, 1,000 recruits completed training in Uganda as a part of the agreement with the EU.[64]

 

As of March 2013
, the Somali National Army reportedly consists of six trained brigades, two of which are presently deployed. Each brigade comprises three to six battalions of around 1000 soldiers each, or 18,000 to 36,000 troops in total. Of these, an estimated 6,000 to 12,000 soldiers are currently in service.[72]
