=== Contract service ===
A contractual military service is a service last for 3–12 months, or for a term of three or five years. Males under 36 who have not previously served as contract servicemen and are registered in the reserve, can be enrolled in contractual military service as privates. Felons and those not fit for service are ineligible for contract service. Since 2008, sergeant training courses for contract servicemen have operated in the Armed Forces and since 2013, the duration of the courses has three months. The courses are open to reservist privates under the age of 25.<ref>{{Cite web|title=MD RA - For Journalists|url=https://www.mil.am/en/pages/38|access-date=2021-04-02|website=mil.am|language=en}}</ref>
