The Military ranks of Libya are the military insignia used by the Libyan Armed Forces. The rank insignia was inspired by the armed forces of the United Kingdom, which trained the forces of the Kingdom of Libya during its Allied occupation up until independence.[1] In 2016, the rank of Field marshal (Arabic: مشير, romanizedMushir) was instituted and awarded to Khalifa Haftar.[2]
