OOC:

Population: 12 million
Economy: Reasonable (~$10,000 GDP per capita)
Maximum Peacetime Force: 240,000 (2%) - 5% is only possible in wartime. In peacetime, it should be +/- 2%, tops.
Maximum Military Spending: ~$12 billion per annum

Total combat/support Aircraft: 5000 (air force only)
MINIMUM Personnel for Air Force: 200,000 (40:1 personnel to aircraft ratio, a good force has twice that)
Operating cost of aircraft: >$6 billion per annum, excluding payroll, initial training, and nonaircraft equipment & facilities

Total ship's crews: 211,625
MINIMUM Naval Personnel: 500,000 (should be 800,000-1,000,000+)
Operating cost of naval vessels: >$13 billion per annum, excluding payroll, training, and nonshipboard equipment & facilities

Estimated military upkeep per annum: $60 billion+

Conclusion: Said army is too large for said nation. Said army is too small for stated equipment totals. Said nation cannot afford more than 1/5 of said army, tops.


Really, you have an air force much more in tune with a nation of 200 million, and a navy that's a bit much for anyone under 400 million. The costs of running these in both money and manpower are just too high. I would strongly suggest looking into actual military forces of actual nations around your size before trying to outdo RL nations 25 times your size with 3 times your economy.

Ok thanks, I'll make it wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy smaller. But not now, I have an exam soon :eek: , but it's the last exam I have :D , but it's French :eek: , I hate French :headbang:

Tu ne comprenhais pas l'importance du Français.

PS: according to militaty budget, see stat finder (http://www.sunsetrpg.com/nsxmlparser.php), you current defense budget is only 6535 Million Dollars. Mabye by improving you economy (the excange rate is 1USD=.45pounds) you might be able to field a decent military

Nice little gadget, but it has some notable problems, and I don't trust it too much. Most notably, the black market is not done correctly, and neither is the GDP.

Divided every number by five, thanks for your comments.
