Project Phoenix (South Africa)

Project Phoenix (South Africa)

Project Phoenix is an ongoing programme within the South African National Defence Force (SANDF) to revive its Reserve Force and bring it on a par with the Regular Force under a "One Force policy."

The aim is to reach a point whereby members of the Reserve Force can be easily substituted for those of the Regular Force for combat operations, thus easing the requirement to sustain a large Regular Force.
