The Internal Troops of the Ministry of Interior is a military force, the youngest part of the Imperial Service but operationally subordinated to the Interior ministry. They are designed to be used to support and reinforce the police forces, deal with large-scale crowd control, internal armed conflicts, prison security and safeguarding of highly-important facilities. As such, the force was involved in all conflicts and violent disturbances. During wartime, the Internal Troops falls under the Imperial Service military command and fulfil the missions of local defence and rear area security. Although they could, in case of necessity, act as special teams, they are intended, designed, equipped and trained for urban and security combat. The Internal Troops are charged with the fundamental task of safeguarding national security, maintaining social stability and ensuring that the people live and work in peace and contentment. It strives to make itself a powerful, disciplined and politically reliable force. The jurisdiction for Internal Troops law violations against civilians is within civilian military courts. Alongside the internal security forces, which are the by far majority, Internal Troops include also forces guarding mines, forests, ground-based electricity supply, and communications, ass well as security guard forces. The latter ones are differently trained contingents, but if necessary they can join the "ordinary" Internal Troops in order to assist them. The use of Internal Troops instead of the Ground Forces in these situations helps to preserve the favourable image of the latter with the population. In addition to these peacetime roles, in time of war they would support front line operations by providing rear security against enemy sabotage, defending supply and communications lines, and operating prisoner-of-war and penal Regiments. There are 146 Regiments of Internal Troops plus several other units, for a total of well over 5 milions soldiers. Internal Troop organizational elements include operational formations and units (regiments and separate battalions), motorized units which support public order in most of Barrayaran large cities and units for guarding important facilities, including nuclear arms, nuclear energy complexes and special cargo. The Internal Troops have one Chief Commander, one first political officer, and several political officers. The current Chief Commander is General Xavier Vorsoisson.
