The ranking considers factors including the amount of military equipment and troops each country has, as well as their financial standing, geography, and available resources, information which may be imperfect. Notably, the ranking only evaluates militaries from a conventional standpoint, overlooking a country's capacity for nuclear strike.

It purportedly uses more than 60 factors to generate a PowerIndex score, with a score closer to zero indicating a more powerful military. (Global Firepower doesn't explain exactly how the factors are weighed against each other or the workings of their "in-house formula."wink

Watch the video above rundown of the 25 top militaries, per this ranking, with some information on each nation.

Having the numbers and equipments is not a guarantee. Experience and tactics also applies.

Based on the latter.

1. Russia. They have the equipment, the numbers and the experience. Right now Russia stands our in terms of battle tested military. They are fighting against the best adversary any military can hope to fight with (NATO) . after the war in Ukraine no military alliance or that of any country will dare or will want to fight russia directly.

2. Ukraine.
Yes Ukraine comes 2nd in terms of battle tested military. Daring to fight against russia directly, doing something no NATO member not even the USA would dare to do. Ukraine alone against any of the NATO allies, I'm pretty sure Ukraine will give any of them including America a run for her money. Howbeit after the war with Russia, it will take Ukraine a lot of years to get back up. Because they have been exhausted militarily.

USA, China, Germany ,North Korea, UK, Poland , Turkey, Israel etc all occupied 3rd position because none of them his fought a conventional warfare with a worthy adversary. I know some will say USA and Israel. There's nothing conventional in their wars. All they do level their adversaries with series of bombardments then their troops go in for mop ups. Reason why American mercenaries keep running from Ukraine. The battle there is different from that of fighting terrorist carrying ak47.
