The Republic of Tajikistan (Ҷумҳурии Тоҷикистон) is an independent Central Asian republic, formerly a part of the [[USSR|Soviet Union]]. The nation declared itself independent as the USSR collapsed in 1991.

A civil war in Tajikistan raged from 1992 to 1997, pitting the government forces of President Rahmon Nabiyev against the United Tajik Opposition. Several disparate organizations made up the Opposition, including liberal democratic reformists and several Islamist groups (supported by the Afghan Taliban, [[Iran]], and [[Pakistan]], among others). A United Nations-sponsored peace accord was signed on June 27, 1997, effectively ending hostilities but leaving the nation's infrastructure devastated and as many as 100,000 people dead.

The Armed Forces of Tajikistan were not formally organized until 1994. At the time the USSR dissolved, some former Soviet units in Tajikistan were simply transferred to Russian control, while other units remained in Tajikistan under the command of Russian officers. During the civil war a peacekeeping force of CIS nations was present, and some Russian units have retained a presence in the country into the present era.

Presently the Tajikistan Armed Forces consist of the Land Forces, Mobile Forces, Air and Air Defense Forces, Presidential National Guard, and Security Forces (internal and border troops).

* At the time the Armed Forces of Kazakhstan were initially formed, both Soviet-era and new Russian camouflage uniforms were still being issued to Tajik conscripts. Of these, the Soviet VSR pattern seems to have survived the longest.

* Circa 2005-2006, Soviet-style uniforms in Chinese [[woodland]] camouflage patterns began to be worn. Both the old design and the m81 copy have been documented in use.
