Bahrain Defence Force — Force Atlas

概要

六國中最小的國家軍隊，所在國家接待了美國在該區域的海軍司令部——在此安排中，東道主自身的部隊並不是該國最主要的軍事事實。

廣泛活動地區: Bahrain's islands, airspace and waters
重要歷史: Bahrain's defence force is a small army, air force, navy and royal guard on an island whose military significance lies elsewhere: the Naval Support Activity at Manama is the headquarters of United States Naval Forces Central Command and the Fifth Fleet, of the 47-nation Combined Maritime Forces, and of the International Maritime Security Construct, and the British navy's own Gulf facility sits beside them. The kingdom is a member of every one of those structures and was among the six states attacked from February 2026; Iranian retaliatory strikes on 1–2 September 2026 included facilities in Bahrain. Its own navy works alongside the coalition headquarters in the same harbour, which is the one place in the Gulf where the host's forces and the guest's are physically inseparable.
優勢: Integration with the American and coalition naval structures that no other Gulf state's forces have, and membership of every maritime-security body in the region.
限制: Small, and in an arrangement where its own forces are not what deters anyone. The kingdom's internal-security record since 2011 is documented elsewhere and is not this module's subject. No force levels, holdings or readiness are recorded.
