South Africa’s military operations have been all about peace keeping for a very long time now.
Ranked 46 out of 126 military forces in the world, we don’t do too badly on the Global Firepower’s PowerIndex.
The index ranks each nation’s “potential conventional war-making capability across land, sea, and air”.
The final ranking incorporates values related to resources, finances, and geography, and over 50 different factors make up the final GFP ranking, delivering the PowerIndex.
Bonuses and penalties are applied where appropriate.
