Russia is second in the world after Israel in terms of the ratio of arms exports to GDP

In terms of the ratio of the volume of arms exports to gross domestic product (GDP) over the 8-year period (2004-2011), Russia ranks second in the world after Israel.

Ranking countries on this indicator characterizes the degree of importance of military exports in the overall structure of the country's economy.

Israel ranks first in the world in terms of the ratio of identified military exports to GDP (1,01%) (exports of military hardware to 2004-2011 amounted to 14,462 billion dollars, and GDP over the same period was 1430 billion dollars). That is, the economy of Israel is most dependent on the export of arms in comparison with all other countries of the world.

Russia with 0,52% (identified weapon exports to 2004-2011 - 50,824 billion dollars, GDP - 9865,74 billion dollars) ranks second.

The top three are Sweden - 0,32% (the identified volume of military exports in 2004-2011 amounted to 11,158 billion dollars, GDP - 3486,54 billion dollars).

The fourth place is occupied by Ukraine - 0,31% (the volume of military exports - 3,107 billion dollars, GDP - 1002 billion dollars).

Other largest suppliers of weapons occupy a more modest position on this indicator, which indicates the lesser importance for them of military exports in the overall balance of the country's economy.

In particular, France is ranked 8 with 0,16% (military exports - 31,246 billion dollars, GDP - 19853,2 billion dollars).

The United States occupy a 11 place - 0,12% (military exports 135,046 billion dollars, GDP - 109733,1 billion dollars).

The UK ranks 12 - 0,11% (military exports 20,375 billion dollars, GDP - 19266,5 billion dollars).

Germany ranks 13 place - 0,10% (military exports 25,096 billion dollars, GDP - 25546,43 billion dollars).

Spain and Italy with 0,07% share the place 17-18.

China with 0,02% takes 32 place (military exports - 8,046 billion dollars, GDP - 33134,75 billion dollars.

Of the world's leading suppliers of weapons, China has the lowest ratio of military exports to GDP.

Ranking countries by the ratio of arms exports to military expenditures by period 2004-2011.

First place in the ratio of military exports to military expenditures for the period 2004-2011. Ukraine is ranked with 30,24%. The second place is occupied by Sweden (25,07%). Switzerland closes the top three (18,67%). Russia with 17,98% takes 4 place.

Ranking countries on this indicator allows "indirectly" to determine the balance between military exports of a country and the funds allocated for the development of its own armed forces, given the fact that a significant proportion of military spending is spent on financing the procurement of weapons for its own army.

Since the share of expenditures on the development of the Armed Forces in the military budgets of various countries varies greatly, these figures, as mentioned above, can only be considered as indicative values ​​in the context of assessing the balance of military exports and funds allocated for the development of their own Armed Forces.

Nevertheless, TSAMTO considered it appropriate to carry out such an analysis, since it is already of interest in itself.

Of course, it would be more correct to conduct such an analysis for all countries of the world, taking into account only the expenditure part of military budgets allocated for the development of the Armed Forces, however, many countries do not have reliable information on the expenditure part of military budgets allocated for the development of their own armed forces. according to the ratio of military exports to the total volume of military expenditures of a country.

An indicator over 10% has a few more countries. These are Israel (13,74%), South Africa (11,39%) and Belarus (10,58%).

Unlike Russia, Israel, Sweden and Ukraine, the other largest world arms suppliers have a significantly lower ratio of military exports to military expenditures.

In particular, Germany has 7,24%, France - 6,95%, Spain - 6,09%, Italy - 4,30%, Great Britain - 4,22%, USA - 2,64%.

China has the lowest percentage of the world's leading arms suppliers - 1,81%.

Fully material on military spending countries of the world for the period from 2004 to 2011. with a large number of tabular statistics will be published in the upcoming publication of the year TSAMTO-2012.

Well, Jewish exports would have to be added to ours, it was not for nothing that the states introduced the Jackson-Broom amendment

USA - 11th place! Hahaha!
Debility rating about anything.

Correctly understand the essence.
This refers not only to the weapons EXPORT rating, but to the ratio of the identified military exports to the country's GDP.
These are different things.

[ughhh]

I get the point. And wrote about it. Rating about anything. Absolutely empty numbers. They took the square root of the population, divided by GDP, voila: Russia - 2 place, USA - 11. And why?

[Joker]

Why are you all happy, I don’t understand? Because our economy is weak and rests on the extraction of natural resources and the arms trade? The rating is the opposite, Americans earning the most on arms trading are in the 11 place. This is bad, we need to develop the economy, in fact we are on the plus side because the United States is crawling through all the holes, because of this, underdeveloped countries are buying weapons from us in case of war with the USA, well, thanks to the partners the Indians and Chinese who are purchasing from us engines for fighters.

Research and Production Association "Saturn" is implementing a contract for the supply to China of 184 aircraft engines of the D-30 KP type for Il-76 military transport aircraft, said the managing director of the enterprise Ilya Fedorov on October 1. The contract was signed in November 2011 and entered into force in February 2012, RIA Novosti reports. “For the D-30 KP, we are making a large order for China, a very large one. These are 184 engines. The amount of the order is over half a billion dollars,” said Mr. Fedorov.

And here the Professor and Pupyrchatyi make themselves so peace-loving pacifists, as it turns out, the country they represent and also try to imagine in the light of unlimited pacifism, not just the most militarized country in the world, it simply lives off the production and export of death! Well, if Russia never, herself, in any case through the forum users here, she did not expose herself innocent by the lambs and did not hide her plans -))))).

We have already laughed about "good agriculture with advanced technologies, medicine with them": the military-industrial complex brings only one percent (in fact, I believe that not much more), and now you won't bother, tell us how "this share with us strives for active growth, growth much faster than other export items.

- Well, do not forget that we are talking about export (that is, far from all the weapons released, but only that they could shove), referred to the entire GDP, because as much as one percent is a good figure, and this is a lot. And yet - this is already in addition to jokes, for everything above is just a joke, specially exaggerated everything in order to bully you. I succeeded, and I am very pleased. As much as both stung jumped! True, they weren’t as furious as the VAF, for example, when I joked about the ark built by an amateur and the Titanic built by professionals. This is a bit upsetting, well, yes, it’s a good start .-))). Today I’ll go to sleep with a good sleep -)))). Why bully - and so that life would not seem honey -))))
So, okromya jokes - why do you need so much to shove weapons? Russia understands that it is overly dependent on export of raw materials, it is necessary to somehow reduce this dependence, well, there are a number of serious reasons forcing this, although Russia itself needs this weapon. In short, for Russia this is critically important. Why do you need it? You have a bunch of other products perfectly exported, and this is not raw material. Why are you trying so hard to export death? Is it really so critical? Or bloodthirst? Pupyrchaty already almost all honestly admitted, you acknowledge -))))

Kazakhstan: Military cooperation with Israel - how and why?

The Ministry of Defense of Kazakhstan appealed to Israel with a request to assist in the modernization and establishment of arms production in accordance with NATO standards. How beneficial is this cooperation to both parties?

Astana hopes that the Kazakh-Israeli joint ventures could specialize in the production of modern weapons, military and special equipment, the gradual transfer of individual components of the military-defense system to high-tech samples that meet world analogues and NATO standards. The issue of creating such a joint venture is already at the stage of concrete registration, Deputy Defense Minister of the Republic of Kazakhstan Kazhimurat Maermanov said following negotiations with representatives of the Israeli weapons developer Soltam Systems Ltd. The company, by the way, recently participated in the improvement of the Kazakhstani artillery systems "Semser". Kazakhstan is already modernizing, with the involvement of Israeli developers, the missile and artillery systems in service, but, as noted by the Israeli observer, an expert on military cooperation between Israel and the CIS countries, Yevgeny Sova:

Israeli interest

"The main interest for Israel in Kazakhstan is the Soviet T-72 tanks. These tanks were modernized by Israel in its time in Georgia. Today, Kazakhstan has about 600 such machines, which is already interesting to Israeli companies that sell electronic" stuffing "for Soviet tanks. Also, the main attack vehicles of the Kazakh Air Force are Su-25 attack aircraft. Israel has good experience in upgrading these aircraft, and local companies are ready to work with the Kazakh army. "

Benefits for Kazakhstan

Kazakhstan also hopes that Israeli developers could establish modern military production on the basis of the heavy machine-building plant in Petropavlovsk, which, according to the expert, will help increase the export potential of Kazakh military-industrial companies creating competitive products in the future:

"Kazakhstan is well aware that Israel is constantly at war, which means it is improving its new developments in the field of military electronics and high technologies. The country proves this on the battlefield every 3-4 years."

Pissed, Pissed. So what to do? There is something to sell. For example:

NEW DELHI, 4 October. (ARMS-TASS)... The Indian Air Force will modernize its Israeli-made UAV fleet, the Press Trust of India reported.
To implement this program in order to increase the reconnaissance capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles used in the interests of the three branches of the armed forces, the Air Force will attract an Israeli manufacturing company - Israel Aircraft Industries (IAI - Israel Aircraft Industries). The cost of modernization is estimated at INR 50 billion ($ 950 million). During the modernization of the UAV, the original on-board equipment produced by the Israeli company will be used. The Indian Armed Forces currently operate a UAV fleet of more than 150 devices purchased from IAI over the past several decades. In particular, the Air Force uses Searcher II and Heron UAVs for reconnaissance and surveillance, as well as about 100 Surcher UAVs in India's border regions in the west, north and east.
After modernization, the Air Force will be able to exploit existing UAVs at increased ranges and control them through satellite communication systems.
The Indian ground forces are using approximately the same number of UAVs, deploying them along the western and eastern forward regions. The operation of UAVs in the army began in the 90s, when the devices "Sercher" Mark I and "Sercher" Mark II were received, which can operate at an altitude of 4500 meters. Then the army received the Heron UAV, the height of which is 9000 meters.
The Air Force began operating the UAV after the ground forces, having received the Sercher Mark I, Sercher Mark II and Heron UAVs.
The Indian Navy also has three operational squadrons of Israeli UAVs deployed along the eastern and western maritime borders.

Sweden surprised by third place, did not know that they were involved in the export of weapons .......... apparently post-traumatic syndrome after the Petrine execution

[Andrei from Chelyabinsk]

In general - some kind of nonsense. Well, let's also compare the volume of military exports with the dynamics of prices for beef, or, for example, let's compare the export of weapons with the import of Lego constructors.
The export of arms is something that any country can be proud of - for the modern defense industry is a very high-tech industry. Well, the one who creates high technologies has the domestic demand for engineers and technicians, which means that the education system must be at the highest level and science will not be in the rubble ...
To the pacifists, who shout that selling weapons is inhumane, we answer - humanely. And the higher-quality weapons we sell, the more likely they are not to be launched. Weapons are needed not only to wage war - they are needed first of all in order to prevent war. Want peace ... and so on.

about weapons, what we can do, we can, and better than so many. and in the world our weapons have a proper rating, if not for politics, the opponents themselves would have taken it from us. and there’s nothing to be embarrassed to be proud of

For clarity. According to the International Monetary Fund:
US GDP: $ 14.624 billion
Russian GDP: $ 1.476 billion
Israeli GDP: 201bn Doll.
And now we can consider how many people have percent of GDP and how many times the difference.

[erased]

The numbers are good. But it is better to see them in new equipment for the army, in new jobs and in young highly qualified specialists.

[gregor6549]

At this stage, it would be much more useful if Russia took any place of honor in terms of meeting the needs of its Armed Forces in modern weapons and military equipment. The place of honor among exporters is also apparently pleasing to some of the Russians, but only his and his accounts in foreign banks are visible. Now, if these accounts were directed to ensure the internal needs of the Russian Armed Forces. But ... dreams, dreams. In the meantime, one has to be content with a sense of legitimate pride in the skill and dexterity of the very separate comrades mentioned above.

To be honest I did not understand the question. Will you translate ??

[Allegedly]

70s. Lecture on the international position of the company. The lecturer speaks long and tediously. At the end, the presenter asks the question: "Are there any questions for the lecturer?" As usual, no questions asked. Everyone wants to quickly scatter home. And suddenly, from the last row of an inconspicuous-looking peasant, he pulls his hand and asks an unexpectedly bold and frank question for those times:
- Comrade lecturer, you talked a lot and did not say anything specific. You tell me, honestly, the 3rd World War will be?
The lecturer, at first somewhat taken aback by such impudence (for 20 years no one asked him "uncomfortable" questions), came to his senses and answered:
- You know, judging by how the international situation is developing, as its experts estimate, the 3rd World War will most likely be. Are there any other questions?
The little man is not relented:
- Comrade lecturer, do you agree, if the 3rd World War will be, then with whom?
Lecturer:
- Well, again, judging by the emerging trends in world politics, given the estimates of international experts, our most likely opponent in the 3rd World War is China. Are there any other questions?
Little Man:
- I still can’t wait for a specific answer from you. If the 3rd World War will be, then who will win it? There are 250 million of us, and the Chinese are already one and a half billion.
Lecturer:
“Well, comrades, you understand that in a modern war, strength is not as decisive as it was in past wars.” Take, for example, the Middle East. 5 million Jews are fighting against 50 million Arabs (although there are 500 million like good morning) and are constantly winning. Are there any other questions?
- Tell me, do we have enough Jews?

What an idiot wrote an article. Of course, it would be more correct to conduct such an analysis for all countries of the world, taking into account only the expenditures of military budgets allocated for the development of the armed forces, however, reliable information on the expenditures of military budgets allocated for the development of their own armed forces is not available, therefore, the calculation was carried out by the ratio of military exports to the total volume of military spending of a country.

Over 10% have several more countries. These are Israel (13,74%), South Africa (11,39%) and Belarus (10,58%). In Belarus, 3% of the budget for obaron but not 10
