Everything about Military Of Kuwait totally explained
Before the
Persian Gulf War,
Kuwait maintained a small military force consisting of army, navy, and air force and national guard units. The majority of equipment for the military was supplied by the
United Kingdom and the
United States. Aside from the few units that were able to escape to Saudi Arabia, including a majority of the air force, all of this equipment was either destroyed or taken by the Iraqis. Much of the property returned by
Iraq after the Persian Gulf war was damaged beyond repair.
Since the war, Kuwait, with the help of the
United States and other allies, has made significant efforts to increase the size and modernity of their armed forces. These efforts are succeeding. The government also continues to improve defense arrangements with other Arab states, as well as UN Security Council members.
A separately organized National Guard maintains internal security. Police forces are under the authority of the Ministry of Interior.
Since 1999 women have served as part of the police forces.
