How accurate are these rankings?

[Farhan Malik]

There are two major internet services which are recognized as authentic in evaluating military powers across the world: Global Fire Power and Credit Suisse.
The Global fire-power system does not take into account the nuclear arsenal of a country whereas the credit suisse methodology covers all aspects of a country's strength. Current rankings are:

The Global fire-power system does not take into account the nuclear arsenal of a country

Those are based on the weapon systems a country has. Don't know if they take into account Nuclear missiles, but they do consider missile range.

Defense budget is only one in many parameters.

Global Firepower is absolutely ludicrous. Business Insider seems a tad bit less silly, but still inappropriate. Nuclear powers should receive a MUCH bigger bonus, we are by default stronger than any non-nuclear power (unless we have less than 5 warheads or something like that).

What astonished me the most while browsing the several military capability websites in the past few years is that most of the rating systems regard the following 5 Islamic countries to be superior in comparison to the Pisraeli sons of female dogs. Turkey, Pakistan, Egypt, Iran and Indonesia
Yet none of the Muslim states ever dare to raise a single voice against the Jewish war crimes and violations of UN conventions except for the brave Iranians.
For Shame!

they only consider static numbers.
A country with 100 mig 21 is better than a country with 5 f-35.

Global firepower does not use a reliable ranking method whatsoever. The website ranks military based on quantity of equipment rather than the quality of equipment. North Korea is 18th military power according to GFP because it has a huge quantity of weapons. However those weapons are of poor quality and GFP didn't take note of those. Also GFP doesn't take into account the quality of armed personnel and likewise there are many other factors GFP didn't consider when making these rankings.

Also the number of equipment posted by GFP is itself not reliable. In some website it said that India has 3000 tanks while GFP says that India has around 2500 tanks. GFP itself is not updated.

My religious beliefs is none of your business. Also I didn't ask you to point out the Muslim military power. I am not the appropriate person to talk about 'muslim military'.

Dear brothers, If these numbers caress your soul, you can believe it. But what's real is that this whole system makes you sleep.

While we cannot produce our own technology, and our own industry or own economic ecosystem, the above ranking makes no sense.

As long as our politicians and bureaucratic stratas and social order and moral values do not get the courage to stand on their feet, these figures mean nothing.

Remember that even the billions of dollars that we will spend on US, Russian or Chinese weapons can be steam through a military coup or a civil war, while our states are drifting from one conflict to another into chaos.

First of all, we need a revolution of thought and action. Like our ancestors.
