Question

What is the rank of INDIAN military in the world?

Answer 1

In that part of the world the only rankings that matter for India are:

1.  They are better than Pakistan.

2.  They definitely take a back seat to China.

Answer 2

stop asking stupid *** questions, the Indian army is not very strong. Look it up yourself. They are stronger than most third world countries, but not near strong enough to be a superpower.

Answer 3

They are not a superposwer if that's what you want  to hear. They are no better than Iraq was. Even with the bomb they don't have the war machine, technology and training to stand more than a few weeks (or less) against a superpower.

All they got with the bomb was to force pakinstan to get their own bomb, and I wouldn't be surprised if those two countries fry each other in their sense-less never ending conflict.

Answer 4

Sizewise

4th big Army

6th big Airforce (may be)

8th big Navy (slipping down).

See the latest annual issues of ISIS or SIPRI publications that give full analyses.

Answer 5

  India, ranks in the top ten, mainly due to the fact that it has nuclear capability.  It's population plays a part too, but nuclear capability is the 800# gorilla, when evaluating military capability.
