regardless of whats better e.g. merkava or abrams, or leclerc america has 6000 + M1's, whereas israel has about 1,300 merkavas, brits have less than 200 challengers and french have 122 leclercs... crazy stuff...
russia has much more tanks... but alot of them are T-55, T-72's which are obsolete against the top 6 of today... interesting book.
can see what different countries at conflict with one another have.

e.g. india has T-55's vs pakistans chinese replicant T-59's (replicants of T-55's)...

if we dont consider nukes... id say germany is a greater superpower than france as all its armor is new.

interesting book... only prob is doesnt go into details of ALL tanks, just majority, and doesnt really let you know the status of these tanks. e.g. M113's and M60's are labbeled as the same, so for a novice, it would seem one countries M60's are the same as anothers when one of them could have upgraded the vehicles...still interesting nonetheless
