The primary ground force of the United Orcs Armed Forces, the United Orcs Army (UOA) was one of the most prestigious fighting forces in the Galaxy.

Sub-branches

Infantry

The basic footsoldiers of the UOA, Infantry Divisions were the most numerous. Infantry units were often assisted with robotic automatons such as independent mobile weapons platforms.

Artillery

Heavy Mechanized

The Heavy Mechanized units were the mobile armor divisions of the UOA, composed of various heavy armored vehicles such as tanks and battlewagons.

Clone Infantry

The UOA was one of the first armies to experiment with purpose-bred cloned infantry.

Eventually, the experimental Clone Infantry Division became its own branch under the UOAF, the United Orcs Clone Army (UOCA), although cloned infantrymen also continued to serve among UOA and UOCM ranks.

Special Operations

History

Decline

When the United Orcs government disbanded during the Peace Station Era, the UOAF continued to exist in much the same way as it had before, briefly under the command of no state at all. When the United Orcish Empire was later established, it naturally assumed control of the UOAF, including the United Orcs Army.
