Morphology

interforce = force (transparent) = inter + force

The prefix 'inter-' clearly indicates a relationship between multiple entities, and 'force' retains its meaning.

Etymology

Interforce comes from the prefix inter- meaning 'between' and the word force meaning 'military power' or 'strength'. So an interforce operation describes a joint action where two or more services work together.
