The Arconan Armed Forces, more commonly known as AAF, is the organization that encompasses all of Arcona's military forces. Currently Arcona's forces are arranged into four branches: the Arcona Navy Corps (ANC), Arcona Starfighter Corps (ASC), the Arcona Army Corps (AAC), and Dajorra Intelligence Agency (DIA). Those four branches are then combined into two complete fighting forces, the Dajorra Defense Force (DDF) and Arcona Expeditionary Force (AEF).
The DDF is tasked with protecting the Dajorra System, while the AEF is the Clan's task force. The ASC contains all 24 fighter squadrons that are assigned to capital ships throughout the two fleets, as well as to garrisons on Dusk Station and within the Dajorra System. The ACN consists of all of the fleet officers and staff on the capital ships and transports of the DDF and AEF. The AAC contains Arcona's ground forces, many of them stationed on DDF or AEF vessels. The smallest and most secretive branch is the Dajorra Intelligence Agency, a close-knit group in charge of special operations and intelligence.
History
The AAF was conceived as the supreme military organization, overseeing its four branches with ultimate authority, following the debacle at the Battle of Antei in 27 ABY. It was under Consul Mejas Doto, with the help of his Proconsul Sashar Arconae, that the reorganization was carried out.
While the vast majority of the forces are troops stationed throughout the Dajorra system and concentrated on the core planets of Eldar and Selen, there are a lot of personnel dedicated to patrolling Dajorra and venturing out to interact with other Clans and organizations. The Consul is the final authority on the armed forces' policies and operations, but has a myriad of Dark Jedi advisers and fleet officers charged with directing the AAF on a daily basis.
Following the Dark Crusade, in 38 ABY, Proconsul Legorii carried out an extensive restructuring of the AAF in the name of Consul Marick Arconae.
Organization
The AAF's four branches (ASC, ACN, AAC, and DIA) are distilled into the two fighting forces, the DDF and AEF.
The DDF, led by the Clan flagship, the Eye of the Abyss II, also includes two Majestic-class Heavy Cruisers, three Warrior-class Gunships, and an Agave-class Picket. The bulk of its strength comes from the garrisons across the Dajorra System. Additionally, the DIA is run from the DDF. The AEF, which is led by the Invicta, includes the flagships of both Houses, the Bothan Assault Carriers Shadow and Darkest Night. Additionally, the fleet includes an Acclamator-class Assault Ship and Agave-class Picket. Both of these fleets operate inside and outside of Dajorra, sometimes coming together for larger operations that require greater numbers from the AAF.
The ASC is composed of the 24 fighter squadrons owned and operated by Clan Arcona, although each of those fighters is assigned to one of six wings and stationed with either the AEF or DDF. The AAC contains all of the Clan's ground forces, many of them stationed in garrisons on the planets of the Dajorra System, while others serve with either the AEF or DDF. Finally, the Dajorra Intelligence Agency comprises the handful of agents that are in charge of intelligence and special operations.
The AAF is generally run on a day-to-day basis by the Executive Council, who act as the authorities in their respective branches and answer only to the Consul. However, especially during times of crisis, the Consul will step in and steer certain branches in the direction of his choosing. He also reserves the right to replace the branch commanders at will.

The Arcona Starfighter Corps (ASC) is the portion of the AAF dedicated to starfighter pilots. The pilots in the ASC are among the proudest in the galaxy, many having served with distinction in other starfighter corps, while others are fresh recruits. Jonathan deLuce currently serves as Commodore of the ASC, with Training Office Major Brank Treij as his second-in-command. Pilots are trained at the Savric Flight Academy on Boral by Major Treij, using a program developed by former Imperial pilot Andrelious J. Inahj.
Squadrons contain 12 fighters each, and are led by a single captain. Each squadron is then assigned to a wing (led by a Wing Commander), with wings typically including 3-6 squadrons. Currently, the AEF and DDF each contain three wings. The ASC organization is as follows:

Dajorra Intelligence Agency
- Main Article: Dajorra Intelligence Agency
The Dajorra Intelligence Agency, more commonly known as the DIA, is Clan Arcona's special operations and intelligence branch. It is split into two divisions, one which gathers the information and manipulates massive data networks to provide the Clan with the resources it needs, and another that is in charge of conducting the spy operations and coordinating the high profile assassinations and extractions handed down to them by the Consul. The DIA is led by the Intelligence Director, who commands the entire group from the Last Light.
Members of the DIA must be invited to join and approved by the Director himself, and members are rarely chosen from outside the Force-sensitive ranks of the Clan. Currently, Niles serves as Assistant Director and Bureau of Analysis Chief, while Strategos Thanatos Entar Arconae serves as Bureau of Operations Chief.
