- | ===Mechanized infantry division===
| |
- | Organizationally, a mechanized division is the same as an armored division. It differs, however, in that it uses lighter equipment, and is thus more easily deployable.

Every one of the Imperial Guards is zealously loyal to the Shah and would die for him without a moment's hesitation.
