Military ranks of Syria
The Military ranks of Syria are the military insignia used by the Syrian Armed Forces. The Syrian military ranks used a rank structure similar to that of the British Armed Forces and the French Armed Forces.
Current ranks
There have been indications of a possible change in the design of Syrian military rank insignias as of 2025. Photographs of Syrian officers, including those of Brigadier general and Colonel ranks attending the International Defence Industry Fair in Turkey appear to show updated insignias on their combat uniforms.Other recent appearances of senior Syrian officers also show similar insignia, such as during Major General Murhaf Abu Qasra inspection of wounded soldiers in Suwayda whilst wearing a service uniform, his visit to Russia to meet Russian Minister of Defence Andrey Belousov whilst wearing a full dress uniform, and when several officers in combat uniform welcomed returning wounded Hajj pilgrims from the Minister of Defence.
The modifications seem to involve a replacement of the state emblem on the insignia, while retaining the overall rank structure from the Ba'athist era. However, there has been no official announcement from the Syrian Minister of Defence or any other reliable source to confirm these changes.
