The Vietnamese National Army or Vietnam National Army (, "National Army of Vietnam", , "Vietnamese National Army") was the State of Vietnam's military force created shortly after that.

Different units within the VNA fought in a wide range of campaigns including but not limited to the Battle of Na San (1952), Operation Hautes Alpes (1953), Operation Atlas (1953) and the Battle of Dien Bien Phu (1954). With the departure of the French Far East Expeditionary Corps (CEFEO) from Indochina in 1956, following a French-American secret war in South Vietnam, and subsequent end of France's influence in the area replaced by the United States (Ngo Dinh Diem and the Republic of Vietnam replaced Bảo Đại and the State of Vietnam), the VNA was reorganized to an Americanized version; which included the creation of the Army of the Republic of Vietnam.
