Are these numbers OK and not godmodding?

total population: 5 million
total armed forces: 50,000
Navy: 10,000 personnel (About 2,500 on the ships and 7,500 non frontline command and logistical)
1 Ticonderoga CG (sunk in Gibraltar)
3 Arleigh Burke DDG
3 Perry FFGs
10 Cyclone PCsA (1 sunk in Gibraltar)

AF: 5,000 personnel (15 mechanics and logistical per every pilot ratio)
24 F-16C
24 F-15E
4 B-52H
12 F-4G Phantom II
12 AH-1U Super Cobra

Army: 35,000 (half are logistical or command and non front line troops)
36 M-60A3 MBTs
6 Patriot PACIIIs
4 Chaparalls
12 M109 155mm guns
40 M-3 Bradleys
6 M-1A1 Abrams
10,000 ground infantry in 2 divisions; 85% armed with M-16A2s, grenades, M103 rocket attachment to M16
10% M60 machine gun
5% frontline officers with pistol and M16A2

are these OK numbers? My military is mainly for self defense and my ships, especially my Cyclone patrol boats, are mainly there to protect Gibraltar from terrorism, but help is always wanted with that huge job

Good job about putting in logistics. It looks pretty good. I'll run it over another time and see if there are any problems. I am not a military expert, however, so some may have other ideas.

OOC: I'm trying to keep it realistic so I don't get labeled as a noob or anything. I know that this will grow of course with time

Credonia can provide some remarkable military equipment for you, at highly discounted prices.

now down to 9 Cyclone patrols, MBS Protector was lost in a Gibraltar terrorist attack, aid may be needed

Impressive for one so new. No godmodding i can spot. Good Logistics, my friend.

thanks, I see nations just as small with larger armies and get somewhat worried, I'll keep my numbers at this same percent to my population as it is currently

seems fine, but with that many navy personel you can have more than 2 destroyers.
