The Kataeb Regulatory Forces – KRF (Arabic: قوات الكتائب النظامية, romanized: Quwwāt al-Katāʾib an-Niẓāmiyyah) or Forces Régulatoires des Kataeb (FRK) in French, were the military wing of the right-wing Lebanese Christian Kataeb Party, otherwise known as the 'Phalange', from 1961 to 1977. The Kataeb militia, which fought in the early years of the Lebanese Civil War, was the predecessor of the Lebanese Forces.
