[ANPP]

i studied , without study i do not claim anything , you need to check them out

Let us compare...........
SOuth Korea PAKISTAN TURKEY
ARMY
Perssonal 500000 550000 700000
tanks 2100(mainly K1 & K2 start) 3500 2700
IFVs/APC 2300 5400 6000
Heli 600 250 350

AIRFORCE

AWACS 4(boeing 737) 7 0
REFUELERs 0 0 7
HELi 50 150 80

NAVY
submarine 14 8 14
CORVETTE/mine 31 13 27
Assault ship 5 0 -
friget/destroyers 21 11 16


Not to mention that S korea'assets are much better in quality also. And they have better defense industry which is comparable by others. And korea also have bigger economy.

 

[Tridibans]

Do you know how many countries Germany-Austria were fighting simultaneously ??
WW2 is not a Russian victory, but an Allied one where the main driving force was the US.

Not really. Whatever be the case, Germany was defeated by Russia and not UK/USA. I know enough WW2 and I can go on and on to prove my point. But not the right thread this.

USA/UK/X/Y/Z...... All would have fallen in front of the German blitzkrieg in Europe/Asia/Africa, not America. If USSR was neutral (or Hitler was not an idiot), except for the Americas, everything would have been Axis controlled.

 

[PRINCE_THE_SHOWSTOPPER]

The truth is North korea Outnumbered South Korea in terms of weapons but fact is South Korean's weapon technology is more advanced than North Korea

so,after seeing this "global-firepower" r u now convinced that the age old saying "33 kotir more he mukdho jononi,rekhecho bangali kore (soldier here) manush koroni" is once again proved.."

...
India's military is not only far far better than Argentina and the Mughals/ Marathas, etc. ... Case in point is USSR, who had a huge huge army/ AF/ Navy but lacked tech/ tactics etc. as compared to Germany. Also, USSR/ India, though might not be that up to date in terms of military tech, they were/ are not rag tag by any means. Infact, USSR would have beaten UK or USA one on one during the early 1940's .

Not really. Whatever be the case, Germany was defeated by Russia and not UK/USA. I know enough WW2 and I can go on and on to prove my point. But not the right thread this.

USA/UK/X/Y/Z...... All would have fallen in front of the German blitzkrieg in Europe/Asia/Africa, not America. If USSR was neutral (or Hitler was not an idiot), except for the Americas, everything would have been Axis controlled.

Looking at both your statements I can only say that you grossly overestimate the significance of fodder. At no point in history was the USSR able to match American supremacy. That is the reason that the US exists while the Soviet Union does not.

So your original claims that Russo/Indian strategic depth and numbers etc etc can overpower technologically advanced militaries is only half right.

Ok... as you seem hell bent in discussing this off-topic post here, this is what it was like:

1) Firstly, Militarily USSR COULD HAVE BEATEN USA in early 1940s (check my post again). USA just had 1 lakh soldiers in 1939-40 and militarisation started at the onset of ww2 (including rearmament and all). If you even go through a simple ww2 forum/ website, you will know USA wasn't ready for a full scale war before 1942. That too on a limited scale (Asia pacific, operation torch.)On the other hand, Soviet Unioin was the 2nd largest militaery force on earth after Nazi Germany in 1940-41.

2) Survival of USSR and USA in the long term was not anyway related to my point. USSR was a communist country. India is not. With the demise of communism, USSR had to fail. India won't as it is a democracy.

3) Massive manpower, strategic depth is NOT FODDER as you wrongly said. It is another think that Soviet generals like Zhukhov/ Timoshenko/ Budenny had less tactical skills than their German counterparts like Rommel/ Guderian/ Model etc. and hence they used their red army soldiers in that way. If German generals had commanded the red army, USSR would have won in early 1942/43.

I am saying that these rankings are more rational than your nonsensical comments that "common sense" tells us that this ranking is BS. But till now, I am waiting for your factors/reasons why this ranking is nonsense according to you.

And no, I am not contradicting myself. GFP ranking was made with 40 factors (You have the link, you can read them up), while those BS youtube rankings are usually made by the opinion of a bunch of keyboardwarriors, thus the GFP ranking is far more useful in comparing military power.

BTW: You are making a "Dummie" out yourself by making claims without giving proper arguments. And no, mentioning "common sense" is not an argument.

Here is my reason, read carefully: Such rankings don't mean a thing, that's why I called it bullshit. It's just a waste of time reading them... they can never tell anything worthy about a nation you know... you can see it clearly in the course of history, like when Afghanistan won against Soviet Union (it's only an example, I may not be quite right about this example as I am not a professional on the history of that country). Where SU was the #1 on all those lists like this one... but afghanistan was at the end of the list... got my point?

And I never said that youtube rankings are better, I hate all of them.

And don't forget that "common sense" is the primary source of knowledge of mankind. Everything else may fail (like this ranking) but common sense does not. Using knowledge without common sense is like trying to make 9 women give birth to a child in 1 month.

Military Strength of Brazil

Tell me what has Pakistan got. Given it economy, it cannot even a sustain a war for more than a week. While Brazil is a large emerging economy and part of BRIC

It is difficult to discuss anything with Indian mentality because you guys cannot debate without going all over with irrelevant arguments.

We are comparing Military prowess , Genius. Not Economies. Capische.

Now don't reply unless you can stay focused on Brazils current Military Power.

I have quoted you sources and if you are not reading impaired read those before arguing.

Calm down. You cannot wage a war and sustain if your economy cannot support. War is a very very costly affair.

Nobody is waging a War , genius.

We are comparing military hardware.

If Brazil was in our neighbourhood and there was a war, that war would be over in 2 days.

57 F-5 airplanes from 1960's ?

I bet half of them are not even seviceable.

You obviously are incompetent when it comes to Warfare and don't have a clue.

Judging from your name Jade you sound like some nitwit Indian girl who suddenly developed interest in Military guys and decided to come to PDF. First learn somnething about Military before arguing.

Stop Trolling and get a life

What use is the military hardware if you cannot wage a war.
