 With regards to command structure, Moerdani first eliminated the Regional Defense Commands (Kowilhans), a command structure that had been created in 1969, as well as the joint service National Strategic Command ("Kostranas").He then revamped the regional commands system for the Army, Navy, and Air Force.The Army's Military Regional Commands (Kodam) were reduced from 16 to 10, the Navy's 8 Regional Naval Commands (Kodaeral) were streamlined into 2 Fleet Headquarters, and the Air Force's 8 Regional Air Force Commands (Kodau) were similarly streamlined into 2 Air Operational Commands, with all commanding officers demoted to being liaison officers for the military regions, which became the primary area organisation for strategic, tactical, and territorial operations for all service branches.
