Introduction
Military capability is the ultimate yardstick of National power. Even as military power is assessed on a straight measure of military spending, fighting forces, comparisons with other countries, or estimates of firepower coupled with combat forces, some different yardsticks also measure military capability. Without a doubt, based on these parameters, the USA is the strongest military in the world.
Military spending is not the only indicator of military capability. For example, a country like Russia has 4%+ of spending global share while its capabilities were pegged at 9.1 %. On the other side, a country like Saudi Arabia has around 5% of global military spending. Still, it shares the military capability of only 1 % of the total world capability. This shows that not all military spending translates to proportional capabilities.
