India

India is a country in South Asia that is situated on a peninsula that juts out into the Arabian Sea and the Bay of Bengal. One of the world's most powerful militaries in India. In addition to having the most tanks and planes of any nation save the US, China, or Russia, it also has the greatest active manpower of any country besides those two.

India is not widely seen as a military power, much less one that ranks fifth. However, a budget of $64 billion for national defense is a reasonable amount for a nation with a population of over 1.4 billion (comparable to China).

Its arsenal has 1,455 million troops, 6,464 combat tanks, 35 battleships, 14 nuclear submarines, 1,905 aircraft, and 150 nuclear bombs. Nuclear weapons are also in India's arsenal. It is projected that it will surpass Russia to become the world's fourth-largest military spender.
