  • The Afghan National Army (ANA) is a service branch of the Military of Afghanistan currently being trained by the coalition forces to ultimately take the lead in land-based military operations in Afghanistan. Afghanistan's army was established in the 1880s when the nation was ruled by Emir Abdur Rahman Khan. Prior to that the army was mostly a combination of tribesmen and militia forces, as well as a special army force under the ruler of the country. During the 1960s to the early 1990s, the Afghan army was trained and equipped by the Soviet Union. By 1992 the national army fragmented into regional militias under local warlords. This was followed by the Taliban rule in 1996, which had their own armed forces. After the removal of the Taliban in late 2001, the new Afghan National Army began to be created with the support of US and other NATO countries. The ANA is being equipped with modern weapons and provided with newly-built state-of-the-art housing facilities. Since 2002, billions of US dollars worth of military equipment, facilities, and other forms of aid has been provided to the ANA. Most of the weapons come from the United States, which includes 4,500 Humvees, at least 90,000 M-16 assault rifles, body armored jackets as well as other types of vehicles and weapons as well as aircraft. It also includes the building of a national military command center, with training compounds in different parts of the country. To thwart and dissolve former militias or Taliban supporters, the government of Afghanistan has offered cash and vocational training to encourage members to join the ANA. As of May 2009, the Afghan National Army consists of more than 90,000 active troops. The current goal of the Afghan Ministry of Defense is to expand the Afghan National Army to about 134,000 troops. However, American President Barack Obama has called for an expansion of almost 260,000 Afghan troops in the next five years at a cost of $20 billion. All costs of expansion of the army, including pay and new modern equipment, would be paid for by the American government.
  • Die Afghanische Nationale Armee (kurz ANA) ist die derzeitig noch im Aufbau befindliche Armee des Staates Afghanistan. Sie wurde am 3. April 2002 gegründet. Derzeit (März 2009) beträgt die Truppenstärke etwa 90 000, bis Ende 2011 ist eine Truppenstärke von 134 000 Mann angestrebt.
  • El Ejército Nacional Afgano (ENA) es la rama terrestre de las Fuerzas Armadas de Afganistán, actualmente entrenada por las Fuerzas de la Coalición para posteriormente tomar el liderazgo en las operaciones basadas en tierra en Afganistán. El Ejército Afgano fue establecido formalmente en la década de 1880, cuando la nación era dirigida por el Emir Abdur Rahman Khan. Antes, la fuerza era mas bien una combinación de fuerzas tribales y milicianos, actuando como una fuerza especial, bajo el mando del gobernante de turno. Durante los 60’ hasta principios de los 90’, el Ejército Afgano fue entrenado por la Unión Soviética, Para 1992 el ejército se fragmento en milicias regionales, leales a “Señores de la Guerra” locales. En 1996, el Régimen Talibán tomo el poder, contando con sus propias Fuerzas Armadas. Luego de la remoción del Talibán, a finales del año 2001, el nuevo Ejército Nacional Afgano fue creado con el apoyo de los Estados Unidos y otros países miembros de la OTAN. El ENA esta siendo equipado con armas modernas e instalaciones de alojamiento nuevas. Desde 2002, billones de dólares americanos, en forma de equipo, instalaciones y otras formas de ayuda han sido provistos al ENA. La mayoría de las armas provienen de USA, incluyendo 2,500 Humvees, decenas de miles de rifles de asalto M-16, armaduras corporales así como otros tipos de armas y vehículos. Estos gastos también incluyen la construcción de un Centro de Comando Militar, con campos de entrenamiento en diferentes partes del país. Con la iniciativa de disolver las milicias y/o a los grupos que apoyan al Talibán, el gobierno afgano ha ofrecido dinero y entrenamiento vocacional para miembros encuadrados del ENA. Para Octubre del 2008, el Ejército Nacional Afgano estaba compuesto, por unas 80,000 tropas activas. El objetivo actual del Ministerio de Defensa Afgano es expandir la fuerza a alrededor de 134,000 tropas. De todas formas, el actual Presidente estadounidense Barak Obama, abogo por una expansión de al menos 260.000 tropas en los próximos cinco años a un costo de $20 billones. Todos los gastos de expansión, incluyendo la paga y la adquisición de material, serán pagados por el Gobierno de los Estados Unidos.
