As an Indian, it is nice to see my country in the "heavyweight" category 🇮🇳❤️. But really, I wish we lived in a world where we didn't need such powerful militaries just to feel safe.
Yes its good to see India finally spending billions on weapons instead of the 100+ million poor. Good choice! It really show that you care about your own people.
11-25 will be the main fighters in the war, because top 10 countries will likely never go into direct conflict. the slightly weaker countries will be the deciding factor
It's amazing how it went from an army people feared would blitzkrieg Europe, to an army that can't blitzkrieg a surrounded Kiev right close to their borders, with no airforce.
You do know that Ukraine is in a war with Russia right now right? So Ukraine farmers would probably yes, have a lot of military equipment but a lot of them would be… passing away😢😢😢😭

Russia is fighting entirely alone, while Ukraine recieves weapons from almost all countries in the world. Interestingly Russia is still producing weapons besides sanctions.

It would be difficult for india to maintain its position if it does not develop it's own private defense industry. The cold War had made the Indian defense dependent on US and USSR.

I don't think you realized how right you were when you said russia couldn't project strength far from it's borders.... Looks like the limit is about 50 miles before everything starts breaking down and logistics run out.
Yeah but as usual they will have to extend their supply lines like many countries do. The difference for someone like America is a much more extreme Air Force and navy for better supplying and better logistical strategies but to say that Russia is stopping at 50 miles is crazy.
Geopolitics will dramatically change in the next 10-15 YEARS. USA , RUSSIA , CHINA, INDIA AND OTHERS WILL POLARISE FURTHER DEPENDING ON THEIR GEOPOLITICAL GAINS.
USA Missing a chance for putting their money on India for central Asia presence. India can conduct war exercises with Israel-Soudi-Iran-Usa at once and has brilliant diplomatic power. Specially whn USA is disliked in MiddleEast and central Asia.
On Feb 1, 2022, India announced its annual budget, putting over 70 billion dollars for military. 68% of the weapons acquisition capital will be spent only on indigenous and locally developed weapons to become atmanirbhar (self reliant) in defence production and reduce foreign imports. Few days ago, India signed it's biggest defence export deal till now. It is with Phillipines to export world's fastest cruise missiles-Brahmos. India now has 2 deployed aircraft carriers (both 45000 tons), 2nd one (INS vikrant) is indigenously built. It also possess indigenous nuclear submarine that makes it a nuclear triad power. India also possess nuclear missiles that can hit not only the entire china but most of the Europe too.
The millitary power is considered by the strength but then again, i think it should also consider how strong the leadership is and hw much influence it creates over the world
Not just that. While Russia is not as capable as the US at invading, they excel at defending. No great Empire has ever conquered the entirety of Russia, and none ever will.
But this isn't something that can be determined BEFORE war because there are many countries whos populations have zero intentions to ever joint he army, and even see it as a waste of money, that would join in droves if the cause was grave enough.
That’s why I feel like the usa will keep being above China and Russia it’s because how fast the usa can develope amazing technology and the usa is already on the verge of realsing their own hypersonic missles
@@squirrelattackspidy and the Germans had far better tanks, a better Air Force, and better submarines then us and well…. We all know how that one played out. No one has the sheer amount of raw economic capacity and sheer resources as we do. China might have more industry then us right now but the difference is since America is a capitalist society as soon as war breaks out or industry will soar just like It did in the last two war because at the end of the day, war is money and everyone in America who can get their hands on some of it will.
Find it interesting that the main thing taken into account is the number of personnel and defence spending. There are a lot of countries who while are smaller numerically have a massive technological advantage over some of the lower ranked countries and have successfully shown combined arms operations
yeah this vid seems to value quanity over quality which is understandable cause its MUCH more difficult to translate quality into numbers to compare but yeah south korea and japanese tech could probably easily DOMINATE russia or china's cold war era rusty missles and tanks
I've heard that a lot of Russias military spending is going into maintaining their nukes which they effectively can't use so the numbers alone don't mean much.
It really boils down to 3 things 1) tech-good weapons means more capability 2) military doctrine 3) training Fortunately for the US, they are miles ahead in all 3 categories. Sheer number doesn’t really mean much (it does, but not as much as most think)
You forgot to mention that Indian armed forces is an all volunteer force. Also has never had to implement conscription in its history. While the chinese and other higher tier nations mentioned in this list have ongoing conscription / forced service or will have to definitely implement conscription in case of major war.
I have to agree with one thing, our biggest mistake was siding with the Allied Powers in World Wars. With Friends like these, who needs even needs Enemies.
I remember that in the same series , the same guy told that France would overtake India as the 4th most powerful military but it fell down to 7th place from 5th🤣🤣🤣
And yet if India goes to conflict with France only manpower will save it! Fact is French equipment is better and also cheaper since it's produced in France while India hasn't such large capability and maintains balanced military supplies by purchasing from others and developing national military industry! That's for now though!
I never thought I would be saying this, as an American I've always thought that we spent way too much on the military compared to domestic issues.... But in light of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, I think it's time for us to boost the size of our standing army and our anti-submarine capabilities, we also need hypersonic missiles and countermeasures against them. We need to be ready to face Russia in the field in case they want to push into Estonia Latvia or Lithuania, all former Soviet states now a part of NATO
The us has a lot of secrets they don’t tell us…you can never truly rank country’s just on what they show us. I’m sure the us has way more advanced weapons that no one knows about bc they are too power to be regularly used
this is what the people who were in favor of spending warned about...the only sure path to victory is deterrence..by keeping our force strong our enemies will think twice..unless our president shuts our oil production down thus pumping money into our enemies pocket...enough with the John Kerry racquet of global warming...gradually change to other energy sources...it will naturally happen without the government forcing it thus leaving us vulnerable and reliant on our enemies for our fuel.

It's tight between #2 and #3, but the #1 is unquestionable. In both military capabilities and tactical deployment the USA is the most efficient fighting force in the world.
@@sigmachadtrillioniare6372 Indeed Bro. It is misleading to believe that Russia and China have surpassed the US in missile technology (which is very thin in practice). The US has a long-term program that will deal with superhypersonic missiles as some call it, as well as producing an endless number of it. And let's not talk about robotic upgrades that they have for the next 20 years. I am a little biased because i study the US military more than any other, but i am 100% confident that in conventional warfare, the United States is pretty much unstoppable if it chooses to fully commit itself. China has a long road ahead to catch up.
@@realeyesrealizereallies427 You're absolutely right. Which is exactly what Russia fears. That's why they are reluctant to fully ally with China, but the tide has shifted so much in China's favor, and with no Help from USA, probably Russia can't do much about it. Climate change will definitely change things in an unprecedented scale.
Within the next 10 years India will be making some impressive development in the weapons development.Will be operating Indigenous Steath jets, Tejas mk2, Nuclear and Diesel electric attack subs, 13k tonne destroyers, Hypersonic missiles, Long range SAMs, Stealthy combat drones and seriously punchy weapons.
As for Experience in dealing with artillery, Ukraine is kinda unique, it’s outgunned roughly 5 to 1, yet it still keeps going. Ukraine won’t have a big navy for a long time I think nor will it be able to project any power. But if you need a bunch of experienced, innovative, very tough, well trained and battle hardened folks to fight a conventional war on land you need look no further, In my opinion. And with an Air Force, attack helicopters and more modern vehicles, the general consensus will be “Don’t F’ with Ukraine” 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦. You gotta love Putin’s plan to demilitarize Ukraine, instead he has created a very capable professional army, and armed them.
outgunned 5-1 ? are you talking about the russian invasion? cause that was 150 000 russians, mostly recruits vs 400 000 ukrainians and they still lost 1 /4 of their land
@@brownpleasure9320 I meant artillery as in ‘outgunned’ and the RuZZians just went flattening everything, even the towns and cities they were supposed to be ‘liberating’?!? And still the Ukrainians have less artillery pieces I believe? But now this ratio is changing, because of those kind donations. As for losing land, I believe the Ukrainians have recaptured more land than Russia gained since February.
Note: The GFP, the official military force indicator referenced in this ranking, strictly excludes "nuclear power" that is not realistic to be used in the territory of other countries at ordinary times.
Of coz must factor nuclear power. Whatever can help the war effort militarily must be counted in the rankings, then we know whose best. If example a tiger fighting a bull, and u said the bull horns shouldn't be taken into account as its not an actual fighting style, that will be inaccurate, coz the horns can poke!
One thing that I respect about the Indian military is that for the most part, India minds its own business. It very rarely places itself in world affairs; something i respect. But it's military is there to remind any potential foe that should they mess with India, they'll pay a hefty price. Much respect to india coming from the Caribbean!!!
@@Flashbackpika it was a mistake but Pakistan anti missile system also doesn't worked . Imagine if INDIA have launched it's missile with missile head .
It kinda insane how 7 of the 10 super powers depend on the US or have US helping train their forces to keep up with modern warfare. USA is really a force to be reckoned with.
@carlykpdx you are living in a cave. There are only political interest for the US, and this is coming from an American. We invaded Iraq to search for weapons of “mass destruction”. Truth is America became a super power by having wars. We literally have military bases all over the world. Motto for US was “speak softly but carry a big stick”. You do know that the Middle East conflicts was caused by the instigation of the US right? When Mohammed bin salman murdered a critic (journalist) what did the US do? Nothing
@carlykpdx of course Iran and Iraq are 2 different countries. I never said anything regarding Iran. MBS is Saudi dictator, which allied with the US. Where the heck you get Iran from?

@@d_ni6519 Nope. The US does not consider countries that go alone as an enemy. What the consider an enemy is countries that try to interfere or who are involved in trying to take down the west.

the thing is if one country goes for war with another country , the allies will also get involved and at that point it's really difficult to say who's going to demolish who
I think it’s safe to say NATO has the most Powerful militaries behind it. And it’s not just nato Japan has already said it will back nato same with Brazil and considering India is a democracy I think if it came down to it they would also join nato’s side.

Nato will not get involved they never had any intention of going to war they just want the USA to protect them and foot the bill the European countries are full of rat cowards minus the Slavic ones and the uk.
@@ipant1056 not actually how it works, as factors such as gains, disadvantages, and it's political status people always think that USA and the rest of NATO as buddies, but really no, how many times has NATO countries gone into conflicts with eachother? this single-handedly shows that the political status there is horrible, and not just that, but comparing how NATO treats USA and Sino-Russian relationships, its far more likely that china and russia will quickly engulf all opposing countries in NATO if they directly support the United states in a large scale war, and no country would risk all their land so 2 superpowers just to bribe a third superpower. oh and ALSO due to the geographical location of china and russia, they will very quickly engulf the whole of asia and europe also, dont say smth along the lines of "oh USA has nukes" or whatever, as due to USA themselves, nukes, or any nuclear or bio weapon is strictly prohibited in war no matter what, and them breaking it would just result in public outbreak. oh and have you seen how much of USA's population is chinese? a whopping 22%, 22. going to war with their mother country would just result in a very bad riot and political status, and due to that, even more NATO countries would choose not to help USA oh and last thing. why would they go to war in the first place? taiwan? i hope you realize that "keeping taiwan democratic" is just a looped way of usa telling china "i've surrounded you", so china wanting to break out of the situation is just natural reaction, given you, if your country was trapped by another country that has the will to end you, wouldnt you revolt?
As events in Ukraine have proven, it's not always the size of the dog in the fight that matters, it's the fight in the dog. Without nukes, Russia are not all that, i'd rank the Chinese way above the Russians.
I mean, it's not like their army is not strong, they're simply heavily unprepared and their leadership is making mistake after mistake. I'm pretty sure that a well coordinated attack from the whole power of the Russian army would completely demolish Ukraine
Russia has more combat experience, so I would downgrade Russia and do the same thing with China. A lot of experts assumptions are being proven wrong...

Gentlemen, remember that at the start of WWII, the US did rather poorly right out of the box. They lost a huge chunk of the Pacific fleet in one blow, and the Battle of Kasserine Pass was a real wake up call for the American military. Their advantage? The US had the time and the industrial capacity to learn from their mistakes and make up their losses, two things the French didn't have. On top of that, the American populous hadn't lost a full quarter of their adult male population just 20 years before. France was still trying to recover from their 1918 victory in 1940. For them the cliché was true. The only thing worse than being victorious would have been being defeated.
I love how everyone has gotta make little jabs to try to make America seem weaker than it really is... When America entered the war we were no super power, not even close to the advantage we have today. Idk why you bother comparing us to France, we will always have the advantage of being on our own secure continent. This was a luxury France did not have.

Wait a second. It has been almost 2 years where india has constantly been upgrading its power from the very best offense and defense such as S400, Ak 203, France's submarines and many others etc. Its been updated in many military list that india now has modern equipment with superior tech. Please update the list as well
Do you think India is the only one upgrading while everyone else is idle? Besides, India should be much, MUCH lower. They have no economy backing their military, relatively no training, no actual combat experience and is entirely reliant on foreign equipment. India doesn't operate anywhere outside its land and doesn't have forward bases, and hence is incapable of projecting power anywhere. India can hardly take on Pakistan. You're delusional thinking India needs to be higher, let alone 4th. For some reason, all these ''top 10s'' believe that more people = better military when that is an outdated WW2 mindset in this era fought with unmanned equipment and drones
@@ZyNeEnZyNe No actual combat experience? India has fought 4 wars with Pakistan and 1 with China, the kashmir region is full of terrorists so the Indian army is constantly fighting and has probably one of the most experienced armies in the world (even more than China). It maybe limited but India does actually have bases abroad as well in countries such as Tajikistan and Bhutan and more. India can hardly take on Pakistan? They have won every single war against the pakistanis, as a matter of fact Pakistan itself is on the verge of collapsing due to infighting with the people from Balochistan, clearly you have no basic knowledge regarding South asian relations so i advise you stop commenting such random bs. If this video was measured based on number of troops, China would be first and India would be second, stop tryna make yourself look smart cuz you are only embarrassing yourself
@@Nik-spartan 4 wars with Pakistan, you're joking right? That's not experience at all especially considering you lot believe you're capable of taking on the world mightiest armies. Pakistan are nothing more than Somalian pirates in this comparison. In fact, your airforce was just shown up by them a few years back... Terrorists? Wow. Come back to me when you fight a war on the other side of the planet and win. Come back when you have experience fighting in different time zones and landscapes. Those aren't forward bases at all, a forward base is like Ascension Island to the UK. You have no real experience in logistics when it comes to global deployment. As you said yourself, your experience is limited to fighting nobodies and certainty not a professional army. How pathetic you accuse me of embarrassing myself when you literally just reinforce my statement. Now not only do you lack experience fighting as a country, you also lack experience fighting in alliances even after all the drills with "quad" and recently the UK, you would be hopeless in a war against any modren European nation. Imagine the Indian navy sailing to Europe to fight hahahah, I'm certain French fishermen could obliterate them. Has your carrier strike group operated anywhere besides the Indian ocean??? Indians are the most egotistical losers on this planet. Awful mentality. I'm just blown away that this guy responds to me with "we fight terrorists and so we're a highly experienced army" 🤡
The UK’s Royal Navy has two carriers, each weighing more that the 3 preceding Invincible class carriers combined, and is the most powerful navy in Europe, demonstrating global force projection in CSG21 and currently holds the NATO flagship. Britains also recently purchased increased nukes from the US putting it on par with France in terms of numbers. The RAF is modern and growing with continuous deliveries of F35s and large scale investment in developing a sixth gen fighter. The army does leave some to be desired but is now receiving challenger 3 tanks and a new air defence system, and has proven its ability to be a rapidly deployable force
@@antoniochiodi4183 yeah no I’m not counting Russia in ‘European navies’ as they span several continents. However the Russian military is a fascinating case study of how western bureaucracy massively impacts the effectiveness of budgets- as Russia has lower gdp and military budget than the uk however they maintain a massively superior armed forces and nuclear arsenal. however I would say both the uk and france’s naval Air Power force projection is the one area that’s superior to Russia’s
@@elnino8985 that's just not true. The french army is debatable at best. The french navy certainly isn't better equipped and trained and neither is the french airforce.
I honestly wouldn’t put Russia at number 2, given how badly they’re doing in Ukraine. After watching lots of combat footage, the Russians appear to be very poorly trained. The Russians don’t scan their surroundings when walking through urban environments, they ride on top of APCs/IFVs in environments where they may be ambushed by insurgents, and I’ve even seen them break from their units and run headlong into enemy-controlled urban environments, after their platoons come under fire. Even if they aren’t motivated for this fight, they should still be doing basic stuff for their own safety, but they don’t appear to have been trained to do it. Their equipment is old, and a lot of their convoys are getting destroyed so fast that the vehicles don’t even make it out of the lanes they were driving in. Their explosive reactive tank armor doesn’t appear to be very good, yet they rely so heavily on it. The Russians look just like the Soviets, who only won conflicts like WWII because they had superior numbers of lower-quality troops. Elements of Russia’s best army, the First Guards Tank Army, have been deployed, badly bloodied, and stopped cold, so even “quality” units aren’t performing. Over a week in, and Ukraine’s tiny air force hasn’t been wiped out, and the Ukrainians are operating non-stealthy drones against the supposedly good Russian anti-aircraft defenses. In less than 1 month, Russian deaths and tank losses may end up exceeding U.S. deaths and tank losses over a period of 32 years and three wars, and there haven’t been any huge urban battles yet, which will cause huge casualties. China has way more numbers, GDP, and production capacity than Russia. I’d put China at number 2. I honestly think that Desert Storm was more indicative of what a conventional military confrontation between the U.S. and Soviets, or the U.S. and Russia, would actually look like than what most people would have thought before the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The Russian military is simply not very good pound for pound. The war in Ukraine is making it clear that the Russian military and their equipment were pretty overrated for years.
While Russia is undoubtably struggling far more than it thought it would in Ukraine, and is having some of it's shortcomings exposed, it's not as bad as the media and social media are making it look for them. They are still making steady gains daily and haven't brought their full weight down on Ukraine. Don't get me wrong I am hoping that somehow Ukraine can pull this off, but realistically if Russia decides to throw it's true weight at Ukraine, the country will fall quickly without direct outside help.
@@boundlessoul This is all of Russia's weight that it can afford to throw. They can't just send their entire army due to having to protect their massive border. It should also be noted that Ukraine's military isn't even in the top 10. It does have the support of multiple militaries that *are* in the top 10, including number 1, though. All this being said, Russia's military clearly isn't capable of projecting power outside its borders in the same way that China is, so at this point it's clear that China is above Russia.
1 aircraft carrier can be used to terrorize the primitive countries, but having only one makit too valuable to use against an enemy that could sink it.
It's good to see India 🇮🇳 in the top 4 . We also have to reach the 100 billion dollar target for military spending afterall we don't want to get in trouble if there is a two front war.

The US has a substantial number of experienced Combat Vets, familiar with the currently used and previous generation munitions and tactics that could easily be called upon if necessary... Their value comes in advisory, non-combat operations such as training and logistics as well as backfilling combat operations as necessary.

The Air Force and Navy did not lose faith in the F35 (20:06) they just realized that the tech might be overkill for what they need in the future.

@@Josh-bn4lb It means that as you move up the power scale the difference between the powers next to eachother increases dramatically. So if 5th place has a power level of 2, 4th place has a power level of 2x2, 4. 3rd place has a power level of 2x2x2, 8, 2nd place has a power level of 2x2x2x2, 16, and 1st place has a power level of 2x2x2x2x2, 32. This means that the 1st place power level is twice as strong as second, 4 times stronger than 3rd, 8 times stronger than 4th and 16 times stronger than 5th. As the power level of the lowest rank increases, the distance between all of them also gets larger much faster. So if 5th place has a power level of 10, 1st place has a power level of 100,000. That makes a fight that looks like a heavyweight MMA fighter vs. a 10 year old boy.
The Chinese military also faces another problem that is the lack of experience on battlefield like the last true battle China fought was during the Sino Vietnamese war after that there is no true experience for China whereas Russia and America we all know are itching to get involved in any war therefore they have the ground experience
Wasn't the last time the US went to war with an actual enemy army and not insurgents and terrorist groups back in like, the 90's? I'd imagine fighting a modern standing military force equipped with high tech gear that also has aerial, electronic, logistical and other forms of warfare support would probably be quite different from fighting sandal wearing religious fanatics waving smoothbore AKs in Toyota technicals... I mean, their tactics were either guerilla ambushes, IEDs and Hit and run. Air superiority might not always be on your side and your enemy might even be an unmanned combat drone. Various factors are always in play, and while some combat experience of fighting in urban and other environments may transfer, it's otherwise probably gonna be a whole new experience.

Well, they don't really need it, because they could at least catch up with consultants and foreign personnel, and they certainly do. In addition, China is one of the nations that has been most actively involved in UN and anti-piracy missions for a few years to gain experience. And overall, no one has the experience it takes for such a conflict with China, Russia, Europe, the U.S., South Korea, etc., etc. fighting, all the to-notch stuff has never really been used in direct conflicts against halfway equally strong systems. In the future, there will also be all the drones, autonomous vehicles / weapons systems and possibly robots, which have also not yet seen a real conflict.
India has significantly increased its Ballistic and missile power in last 2 years , Also acquired 14 rafale aircraft from france . We are 3rd country to enter space power league too.
I mean there are multiple unrests in India and you haven't fought any significant war so your army isn't battle-hardened and you say the space league but realistically that is limited because of poverty in your country. Pakistan might not have an extensive space agency but we are battle-hardened and fought and won the war on terror with the decrease in bomb blasts going down significantly and our economy is picking up.
50 million American men were registered into the army during World War Two. The first manufactured object to achieve hypersonic flight was the two-stage Bumper rocket, consisting of a WAC Corporal second stage set on top of a V-2 first stage. In February 1949, at White Sands, the rocket reached a speed of 8,288.12 km/h (5,150 mph), or approximately Mach 6.7.
Ya correct but every Ballistic missile that freefall Due to Gravity also becomes A Hypersonic missile. The point is A Hypersonic Glide vehicles and Hypersonic Cruise missiles.
@@rajatdani619 true my thing what is the us military hiding? that was in 1949 now its 2022 so what do we have now. The most important military secrets are only disclosed to the select few and china.🤣
@Ze TheGame War is about scale of force not just being able to build something that can perform a certain capability. Having the designs for a hypersonic missile is great and building prototypes is great but can it be manufactured at a scale that would enable it to become a force in a global industrial war. Germany had jet fighters in WW2 but simply could not build enough of them to compete with thousands of aircraft in the sky. German also had tanks that were more capable than anything the Allies had but again could not produce them at scale. Germany also had missiles in WW2 but again could not manufacture them at scale. And this is all with Germany being one of the most advanced industrial countries on earth at the time.
just because you do not see it on youtube does not mean the USA does not have something, i myself believe we have weapons in space already, the USA did a lot of missions into space, who knows what is up there, when it hits youtube it is for sure not a secret anymore to anyone
Actual military power is measured on the battlefield and not by comparing the numbers (of money, people, or vehicles). It depends on soldiers' will, seniors' education, supply chains, geography, and many more. At the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war, Russia had x30 more ammo than Ukraine, however, it wasn't able to get a quick victory. The US had a much stronger army than Vietnam or Afghanistan, but they lost. So I think this ranking is quite irrelevant. Before the actual war starts you'll never know, who's stronger.
The US lost neither, they won in every metric except support of the American people to continue to try killing a cowardly enemy that hides behind the innocent such as the Taliban and the Viet Cong.
For those who watched this video for a project list, or to verify something they've written, here's a quick summary of the vid: 10: Pakistan 9: Brazil 8: Britain 7: France 6: South Korea 5: Japan 4: India 3: China 2: Russia 1: United States
Countries such as the UK , France , Israel , Finland and Sweden , have quality military forces and not so much a quantity military force . Some countries such as Russia might have a quantity military force but they lack quality as much of it's military equipment is worn out or has not been properly maintained .
Uk's land based artillery are 1980s stuff. Most of their land based airdefence is 1970s. Their frontline MBT is 1990s. Their frontline Frigates are 1990s So on an average these "qualities" are 25 to 40 years old. Just like any other larger armed forces.
@@rohitb5834 They are building a new Frigate, which will probably be the best Frigate in the World. They are making a new Tank in the challenger 3 , Our Air defence is also very modern.
@@Hiccup3319 Best in the world? compared to who? Certified by who? New Tank will take another 10 years to be ready. Your Airdefence mostly consists of 1970s obsolete Rapier missiles . Though i just looked up, from 2022 onwards they are being replaced by Sky Sabre, but it will still take some years to replace majority of the equipement. Also Sky Sabre is modern, but only short range of around 40 kms. The overall Airdefence system of Uk is nowhere near the likes of nations like Russia,China or India.
@@Hiccup3319 yeah,not the upcoming Indian one, thought so. Also the British "Frigate" is around 8000 tons Full load. Its a Destroyer. Calling it a "Frigate" and comparing the 8000 tons warship with 5000-6000 tons class Frigates isnt fair.
@@levelazn As a German, I do. Even though Germany was very hesitant when it came down to millitary subjects, I think Germany and Europe are supporting this action of Olaf Scholz.
Great content, the UK however has 11 operational Submarines (one more than France) currently with four of these being Trident ballistic missile submarines. In the next 12 months we will have two operational aircraft carriers which will be the third largest in the world. Additionally looking at quality over quantity Sweden and Germany have arguably the quietest and most capable littoral submarines with the Gotland and 212 class respectively.
Could you imagine how much more advanced/strong Earth would be if we could work together as one species? We could probably be a Type I civilization by now...

It doesn't belong to India. Kashmir belongs to kashmiris and Kashmiris don't want to stay in India. One person can't decide the fate of a whole nation.

India has not brought moder rifles. They still habe a lot of old guns. And their jet its still old and weak. Thete battle tanks are also old and many are also weak.
At present India has many projects in development ( laser weapons, next generation fighter aircrafts, next generation destroyer, nuclear Carrier, new series of nuclear submarines, hypersonic glide vehicle and many more) Probably it will take almost 10 years for India to fully depend on its own created weapons.

the british army is one of the most elite fighting forces in the world , it may not be big but gone are the days of large front warfare and its shift in capability reflects that , its designed to fight with other armys now being a elite spearhead instead of a conventional army , so maybe not give it so much stick as to put it in the same group as brazil and Pakistan

As for Experience in dealing with artillery, Ukraine is kinda unique, it’s outgunned roughly 5 to 1, yet it still keeps going. Ukraine won’t have a big navy for a long time I think nor will it be able to project any power. But if you need a bunch of experienced, innovative, very tough, well trained and battle hardened folks to fight a conventional war on land you need look no further, In my opinion. And with an Air Force, attack helicopters and more modern vehicles, the general consensus will be “Don’t F’ with Ukraine” 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦.
You gotta love Putin’s plan to demilitarize Ukraine, instead he has created a very capable professional army, and armed them.
It really surprised how fast the Ukrainian soldiers adapted to American weapons technology. Very smart soldiers. Very motivated soldiers.
outgunned 5-1 ? are you talking about the russian invasion? cause that was 150 000 russians, mostly recruits vs 400 000 ukrainians and they still lost 1 /4 of their land

As for losing land, I believe the Ukrainians have recaptured more land than Russia gained since February.

The US does not consider countries that go alone as an enemy. What the consider an enemy is countries that try to interfere or who are involved in trying to take down the west.
The US does not care if Russia and China are strong what they care about is what they do with that strenght.
the thing is if one country goes for war with another country , the allies will also get involved and at that point it's really difficult to say who's going to demolish who

oh and ALSO due to the geographical location of china and russia, they will very quickly engulf the whole of asia and europe
also, dont say smth along the lines of "oh USA has nukes" or whatever, as due to USA themselves, nukes, or any nuclear or bio weapon is strictly prohibited in war no matter what, and them breaking it would just result in public outbreak.
oh and have you seen how much of USA's population is chinese? a whopping 22%, 22. going to war with their mother country would just result in a very bad riot and political status, and due to that, even more NATO countries would choose not to help USA
oh and last thing. why would they go to war in the first place? taiwan? i hope you realize that "keeping taiwan democratic" is just a looped way of usa telling china "i've surrounded you", so china wanting to break out of the situation is just natural reaction, given you, if your country was trapped by another country that has the will to end you, wouldnt you revolt?

Gentlemen, remember that at the start of WWII, the US did rather poorly right out of the box. They lost a huge chunk of the Pacific fleet in one blow, and the Battle of Kasserine Pass was a real wake up call for the American military. Their advantage? The US had the time and the industrial capacity to learn from their mistakes and make up their losses, two things the French didn't have. On top of that, the American populous hadn't lost a full quarter of their adult male population just 20 years before. France was still trying to recover from their 1918 victory in 1940. For them the cliché was true. The only thing worse than being victorious would have been being defeated.
I love how everyone has gotta make little jabs to try to make America seem weaker than it really is... When America entered the war we were no super power, not even close to the advantage we have today.

The UK’s Royal Navy has two carriers, each weighing more that the 3 preceding Invincible class carriers combined, and is the most powerful navy in Europe, demonstrating global force projection in CSG21 and currently holds the NATO flagship. Britains also recently purchased increased nukes from the US putting it on par with France in terms of numbers. The RAF is modern and growing with continuous deliveries of F35s and large scale investment in developing a sixth gen fighter.

@@elnino8985 that's just not true. The french army is debatable at best. The french navy certainly isn't better equipped and trained and neither is the french airforce.
French rifles for sell! Never fired, dropped once!
I honestly wouldn’t put Russia at number 2, given how badly they’re doing in Ukraine. After watching lots of combat footage, the Russians appear to be very poorly trained. The Russians don’t scan their surroundings when walking through urban environments, they ride on top of APCs/IFVs in environments where they may be ambushed by insurgents, and I’ve even seen them break from their units and run headlong into enemy-controlled urban environments, after their platoons come under fire. Even if they aren’t motivated for this fight, they should still be doing basic stuff for their own safety, but they don’t appear to have been trained to do it.
Their equipment is old, and a lot of their convoys are getting destroyed so fast that the vehicles don’t even make it out of the lanes they were driving in. Their explosive reactive tank armor doesn’t appear to be very good, yet they rely so heavily on it. The Russians look just like the Soviets, who only won conflicts like WWII because they had superior numbers of lower-quality troops. Elements of Russia’s best army, the First Guards Tank Army, have been deployed, badly bloodied, and stopped cold, so even “quality” units aren’t performing. Over a week in, and Ukraine’s tiny air force hasn’t been wiped out, and the Ukrainians are operating non-stealthy drones against the supposedly good Russian anti-aircraft defenses. In less than 1 month, Russian deaths and tank losses may end up exceeding U.S. deaths and tank losses over a period of 32 years and three wars, and there haven’t been any huge urban battles yet, which will cause huge casualties.
China has way more numbers, GDP, and production capacity than Russia. I’d put China at number 2. I honestly think that Desert Storm was more indicative of what a conventional military confrontation between the U.S. and Soviets, or the U.S. and Russia, would actually look like than what most people would have thought before the 2022 invasion of Ukraine. The Russian military is simply not very good pound for pound. The war in Ukraine is making it clear that the Russian military and their equipment were pretty overrated for years.

While Russia is undoubtably struggling far more than it thought it would in Ukraine, and is having some of it's shortcomings exposed, it's not as bad as the media and social media are making it look for them. They are still making steady gains daily and haven't brought their full weight down on Ukraine. Don't get me wrong I am hoping that somehow Ukraine can pull this off, but realistically if Russia decides to throw it's true weight at Ukraine, the country will fall quickly without direct outside help.
@@boundlessoul This is all of Russia's weight that it can afford to throw. They can't just send their entire army due to having to protect their massive border.
It should also be noted that Ukraine's military isn't even in the top 10. It does have the support of multiple militaries that *are* in the top 10, including number 1, though.
All this being said, Russia's military clearly isn't capable of projecting power outside its borders in the same way that China is, so at this point it's clear that China is above Russia.

Wasn't the last time the US went to war with an actual enemy army and not insurgents and terrorist groups back in like, the 90's? I'd imagine fighting a modern standing military force equipped with high tech gear that also has aerial, electronic, logistical and other forms of warfare support would probably be quite different from fighting sandal wearing religious fanatics waving smoothbore AKs in Toyota technicals... I mean, their tactics were either guerilla ambushes, IEDs and Hit and run. Air superiority might not always be on your side and your enemy might even be an unmanned combat drone.

And overall, no one has the experience it takes for such a conflict with China, Russia, Europe, the U.S., South Korea, etc., etc. fighting, all the to-notch stuff has never really been used in direct conflicts against halfway equally strong systems.

The Fact: It is impossible to invade India.
Its not about military but its diversities.

India has significantly increased its Ballistic and missile power in last 2 years , Also acquired 14 rafale aircraft from france . We are 3rd country to enter space power league too.

I mean there are multiple unrests in India and you haven't fought any significant war so your army isn't battle-hardened and you say the space league but realistically that is limited because of poverty in your country. Pakistan might not have an extensive space agency but we are battle-hardened and fought and won the war on terror with the decrease in bomb blasts going down significantly and our economy is picking up.

50 million American men were registered into the army during World War Two. The first manufactured object to achieve hypersonic flight was the two-stage Bumper rocket, consisting of a WAC Corporal second stage set on top of a V-2 first stage. In February 1949, at White Sands, the rocket reached a speed of 8,288.12 km/h (5,150 mph), or approximately Mach 6.7.
Ya correct but every Ballistic missile that freefall Due to Gravity also becomes A Hypersonic missile.
The point is A Hypersonic Glide vehicles and Hypersonic Cruise missiles.
@@rajatdani619 true my thing what is the us military hiding? that was in 1949 now its 2022 so what do we have now.
The most important military secrets are only disclosed to the select few and china.🤣
@Ze TheGame
War is about scale of force not just being able to build something that can perform a certain capability.
Having the designs for a hypersonic missile is great and building prototypes is great but can it be manufactured at a scale that would enable it to become a force in a global industrial war.
Germany had jet fighters in WW2 but simply could not build enough of them to compete with thousands of aircraft in the sky. German also had tanks that were more capable than anything the Allies had but again could not produce them at scale. Germany also had missiles in WW2 but again could not manufacture them at scale. And this is all with Germany being one of the most advanced industrial countries on earth at the time.
just because you do not see it on youtube does not mean the USA does not have something, i myself believe we have weapons in space already, the USA did a lot of missions into space, who knows what is up there, when it hits youtube it is for sure not a secret anymore to anyone
Great historical bit. However that was in 1949, we are now in 2022.

Actual military power is measured on the battlefield and not by comparing the numbers (of money, people, or vehicles). It depends on soldiers' will, seniors' education, supply chains, geography, and many more. At the beginning of the Russia-Ukraine war, Russia had x30 more ammo than Ukraine, however, it wasn't able to get a quick victory. The US had a much stronger army than Vietnam or Afghanistan, but they lost. So I think this ranking is quite irrelevant. Before the actual war starts you'll never know, who's stronger.
@Hamza Bin Yasseen And yet it took 5 weeks to the US to destroy Saddam army. Remember about the Highway of death ?
The US didn't lose in Vietnam and Afghanistan. They left.
Who told u USA lost to Vietnam? Fool.
The US lost neither, they won in every metric except support of the American people to continue to try killing a cowardly enemy that hides behind the innocent such as the Taliban and the Viet Cong.
@hamzabinyasseen9607allah isn't real
When Brazil goes to war, that is the time that Brazil comes to you.
Just ask the poor Paraguay, they lost 70% of their population when they tried to invade Brazil and Brazil got to them
Brazil for its size and population is pretty weak though compared to USA, Asia and Europe. They only kings in South America.

Bro on Global Fire Power index Pak is on 9th ..
Countries such as the UK , France , Israel , Finland and Sweden , have quality military forces and not so much a quantity military force .
Some countries such as Russia might have a quantity military force but they lack quality as much of it's military equipment is worn out or has not been properly maintained .
Uk's land based artillery are 1980s stuff. Most of their land based airdefence is 1970s. Their frontline MBT is 1990s. Their frontline Frigates are 1990s So on an average these "qualities" are 25 to 40 years old. Just like any other larger armed forces.
@@rohitb5834 They are building a new Frigate, which will probably be the best Frigate in the World. They are making a new Tank in the challenger 3 , Our Air defence is also very modern.
@@Hiccup3319 Best in the world? compared to who? Certified by who?
New Tank will take another 10 years to be ready.
Your Airdefence mostly consists of 1970s obsolete Rapier missiles . Though i just looked up, from 2022 onwards they are being replaced by Sky Sabre, but it will still take some years to replace majority of the equipement.
Also Sky Sabre is modern, but only short range of around 40 kms. The overall Airdefence system of Uk is nowhere near the likes of nations like Russia,China or India.
@@rohitb5834 Compared to the other NATO frigates and Russian/chinese. This is the Type 26.
@@Hiccup3319 yeah,not the upcoming Indian one, thought so.
Also the British "Frigate" is around 8000 tons Full load. Its a Destroyer. Calling it a "Frigate" and comparing the 8000 tons warship with 5000-6000 tons class Frigates isnt fair.
Tell me you hate the UK without telling me you hate the UK
Also, due to this conflict going on in Ukraine, today Germany decided to spend a 100 billion on military this year + spending GDP 2% every year.

Great content, the UK however has 11 operational Submarines (one more than France) currently with four of these being Trident ballistic missile submarines. In the next 12 months we will have two operational aircraft carriers which will be the third largest in the world. Additionally looking at quality over quantity Sweden and Germany have arguably the quietest and most capable littoral submarines with the Gotland and 212 class respectively.
That's a point. The UK has also invested more technology and drones. Like taking systems down with cyber attacks.
Also. The SAS is part of the Air Force? Because it has the word air in it?

It doesn't belong to India. Kashmir belongs to kashmiris and Kashmiris don't want to stay in India. One person can't decide the fate of a whole nation. It's like if modi signed away India to China and raja signed away Kashmir temporarily when he was suffering from rebellion to hold his power over the region, he had no right to do that even if he intended to do it temporarily.

And our airforce have rafels and Su 30 mki ( home built indian version) , plus our own built 4th gen light combat aircraft Tejas.

India has not brought moder rifles. They still habe a lot of old guns. And their jet its still old and weak. Thete battle tanks are also old and many are also weak.

Probably it will take almost 10 years for India to fully depend on its own created weapons. As per now we are far away from the big three.
