Armored Commander: Major General Eliaz Naram

General Description:  If the Infantry is the Army's backbone, Armored is its muscle.  Chosen from a large pool of candidates and highly trained both in Avivash and with their units, Armored personnel have traditionally thought of themselves as an elite group within the Iyudean Army (although roughly 49,000 active Infantry troops would disagree).  Iyudah's Armored corps currently stands at roughly regimental strength, although it remains a severely understrengthed regiment before planned repulsortank purchases over the summer.  Over time, the Army hopes to grow the corps to division strength, at the least.  Units are usually deployed with Army Corps at the company or battalion level.

Active Armored Units:

1st Armored Brigade (Attached to 12th Guards, Avivash)

The 2nd Armored is a battalion-level command with an ideal operational roster of 322 combat soldiers.
