Kosovo Security Force will evolve into Kosovo Armed Forces starting in 2014. This new institution will be developed to take new security responsibilities of Kosovo defense, support to civil authorities, and participation in international operations. One of objective of Kosovo Armed Forces is to be fully interoperable with NATO members, in order to participate effectively in NATO-led operations. A ten year development plan (2014-2024), explains that KAF will be developed in accordance with NATO standards. NATO requires that participating nations meet specific criteria's doctrine, training, and materiel in order to be interoperable and effective in NATO-led Crisis Response Operations. Therefore, this study focuses in examining current Kosovo Armed Forces development program in order to determine whether it meets the NATO doctrine, training, and material requirements. In addition it examines if the current development program creates an interoperable force that can effectively contribute to NATO non-Article 5 Crisis Response Operations.
