| − | The '''Lyran Alliance Armed Forces''', also known by the unfortunately acronym of '''LAAF''', is the military arm of the [[Lyran Alliance]]. Formed from [[Armed Forces of the Federated Commonwealth]]'s Lyran State Command, the LAAF promotes a return to the military and tactical style of the [[Lyran Commonwealth Armed Forces]].

| − | The bulk of the LAAF TOE consists of pre-existing LCAF units who returned home upon the break-away of the Alliance from the Federated Commonwealth, though a small number of new and renamed formations exist. Only [[BattleMech]] or mixed units are listed below - associated conventional assets are considered attached to these commands for convenience.
