Key military indicators reported in this 25th edition of World Military Expendituresand Arms Transfers (WMEAT) suggest that 1995, the last year shown, may prove to be apivotal year. Military spending took an upward turn in the developing countries as a groupas well as in a number of regions, notably East Asia and South America, after droppingsince 1986 except for the Gulf War years. Arms imports by the developing countries alsoturned up sharply in 1995, with increases appearing in the Middle East, East Asia, SouthAmerica, and South and Central Asia. Armed forces numbers did not generally increase in1995, but neither have they shown recent signs of falling appreciably in the developinggroup. On the other hand, for the developed country group all these indicators of militaryeffort continued their decline from Cold War levels in 1995, with little sign of abatement.

Although the full long-term implication of these trends may be cloudy, it is clearthat the work of arms control and nonproliferation is far from over. That conviction is sup-ported by the difficulties being encountered in many of the growing number of internationalpeace-promoting efforts, the ominous threat of terrorism, the military disorder in a numberof regions, and the persistence of armed conflict potential around the globe.

In fact, the work of arms control and nonproliferation is daily facing new challengesand taking new paths. It is imperative that the toilers in this vineyard maintain and evenincrease their dedication, their persistent efforts, and ultimately, their successes, despite set-backs and discouragements.

World military spending of $864 billion in 1995 wasdown 34% from the all time high of $1.36 trillion in 1987and marked the eighth consecutive drop (in 1995 dollars—Main Table I). It was also the lowest spending level since1967.

As can be seen in Figure 1, the reduction in worldspending can be credited to the developed country group(found mainly in Europe,† North America, and East Asia),where the downward trend also began in 1987 and closelyfollowed that of the world. The developed group, makingup over three-quarters of the world total, fell by a hefty 8%

annually in 1991-1995, the latter half of the decade underreport (Table 1). The straight-line segment in Figure 2,shows developed group spending dropping steadily at a rateof 7% since 1992 with no sign of impending deviation,although regional rates vary substantially, as will be seen.

In contrast, military spending by this group of coun-tries (mainly in South and Central America, Africa, andAsia) experienced a sizable increase in 1995, to roughly$200 billion, after having posted consecutive reductions

since 1990. Spending by this group has fluctuated repeated-ly and peaked earlier in a 1982-1986 plateau. It declinedrelatively slowly at under 2% over the decade and under 4%in the latter half, with a reversal at the time of the Gulf War.

This suggests that the post-Cold War downwardadjustment among the developed group is still in progressand is independent of the decline in the developing group,where it may be drawing to a close or reversing direction.

Regional Trends

Although regional military spending continues toexhibit the predominantly downward tendency seen inrecent years, the trends are becoming more diverse, asshown in Table 1 and Figure 3. Real spending growth ratesin 1991-1995 for seven regions, including the largest, werestill declining moderately to rapidly, while five had risingtrends (in percent):

The five largest regions in military spending—North America, Western Europe, East Asia, Eastern Europe,and the Middle East—accounted for 93% of the world totalin 1995. (The regions are ranked in Table 1, second col-umn.) Trends in Eastern Europe and the Middle East weresharply declining, in North America and Western Europe,modestly-to-moderately declining, and in East Asia, moder-ately rising. Eastern Europe lost its leading rank in 1991-1992 with Soviet reform and collapse.

North America's one-third share of world spendingin 1995 was down from its 36% share in the previous year,as the region continued to follow a steady if moderatedeclining pattern begun in 1986, broken only in 1992 by theGulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was byfar the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion in 1995being 3.7 times that of second-ranked Russia. This wasdespite dropping by $18 billion (constant dollars) or 6% in1995 and by around 3% annually from 1985 and 1991.Over the decade, the United States' share of the world inmilitary spending as well as in other military indicators hasincreased, even as its real levels declined, due to the factthat the rest of the world has been falling faster (see boxbelow). Canada's over $9 billion in 1995 gave it a relativelyhigh 13th world spending rank despite being overshadowedby the United States (Figure 4).

Western Europe's spending, at $200 billion nownearly a quarter of the world's, has also been falling moder-ately every year since 1990 at over 3% annually. In 1995,the largest spenders—France, Germany, the UnitedKingdom, and Italy, ranked 5th through 8th with outlaysranging from $48 to $19 billion—continued to fall, led bythe United Kingdom's nearly $3 billion drop. Most othersalso declined, the seven exceptions being Spain, Turkey,Portugal, Greece, Sweden, Ireland, and Switzerland. Over

the decade, Western Europe's 1.3% rate of decline has beenlowest of all major declining regions, followed by NorthAmerica, suggesting the possibility of further substantialdrops yet to come.

East Asia continued its upward trend in 1995,increasing its total military expenditures by $8 billion or5%, to a decade high $165 billion. The region has steadilyincreased its spending every year of the decade except for aslight drop in 1991, with an average 3.3% growth rate sincethen. China's $5 billion jump can be credited for much ofthe region's increase in 1995. There were large increases in1995 by numerous others as well, including Taiwan ($1.4billion), Indonesia ($975 million), Singapore ($585 million),and North Korea ($362 million). Only Japan and thePhilippines recorded sizable reductions, $300 million and

$251 million, respectively. China, at $63 billion in militaryexpenditures, was the third largest spender in the world in1995, followed by Japan at fourth with $50 billion. SouthKorea and Taiwan also were high in the world rankings,10th and 11th, respectively.

Eastern Europe's roughly $100 billion in militaryexpenditures in 1995 marks the region's seventh consecutivedrop since peaking at $472 billion in 1988, an overall reduc-tion of about four-fifths. The 1995 drop of $20 billion canbe credited mostly to Russia, down by $19.3 billion.Russia's roughly estimated $76 billion continues to domi-nate regional spending and puts it second in the world, fol-lowed by Poland, 24th with $5 billion. The Ukraine posted

a large drop of $900 million, and Hungary ($272 million),the Czech Republic ($190 million), and Belarus ($172 mil-lion) also experienced sizable drops. On the other hand, siz-able increases were recorded in 1995 by Romania ($287million), Croatia ($241 million), Poland ($127 million), andSlovakia ($126 million). These followed rises in 1994 aswell.

The largest single drop in Eastern Europe's spend-ing came in 1992 with a sharp 36% decline. (Only aboutone percentage point of this drop was due to the definitionaltransfer of eight former republics of the Soviet Union fromthe region to the new WMEAT Central Asia and Caucasusregion.)

Middle East military spending totalled $49 billion in1995, a slight decline from 1994 and about half of the 1991peak during the Gulf War. Large drops were experiencedby Iran, which fell by $1.4 billion, Saudi Arabia, $420 mil-lion, the United Arab Emirates, $290 million, and Syria,$156 million. Most other countries increased their spend-ing. Egypt had the largest increase in 1995, up by $772 mil-lion. Israel, with $358 million, and Kuwait, $342 million,also showed sizable rises. Saudi Arabia ranked 9th in the

world in 1995 with $17 billion and Israel ranked 14th with$9 billion.

While all five major spending regions except EastAsia had falling trends in the latter half of the decade, theremaining smaller regions exhibited a more varied picturefor that period. Four had rising trends—South America,South Asia, Oceania, and Central Asia and Caucasus (in1992-1995), while three were falling—North Africa,Subsaharan Africa, and Central America and Caribbean. In1995, several of these regions bucked their trends; SouthAsia and Oceania fell while North Africa rose.

Though trends in these smaller spending regionshave little influence on the shares or movement of spendingin the world and various other large groupings of countries,they are significant from the standpoint of arms control,nonproliferation, and regional stability. It is here, after all,that much conflict and war occurs, and such conflict or itspotential provides incentive for the acquisition of ordinaryconventional weapons and, ultimately, advanced conven-tional and mass destruction weapons. Most interstate con-flicts involve individual countries in small sub-regions, ofcourse, rather than large groups and regions.

US Military: Changes in World Status and Trends

The United States position in the world’s military pic-ture has changed in divergent ways recently, depending onwhether the comparison is over time or with the rest of theworld. On the one hand, US military indicators fell substan-tially since peaking in 1986 to 1988, including in the mostrecent 5-year period, while general economic indicators rose(in %):

1995 as % of Average previous peak growth rate (in 1986-1988) 1991-95

Military expenditures 74 - 3.2 Armed forces 71 - 6.3 Military spending/GNP 60 - 5.6 Arms exports 69 - 1.9 Arms imports 29 - 17.4

GNP — + 2.6 Population — + 1.0 Total exports — + 5.5 Total imports — + 8.2

On the other hand, the US rank and share of the worldrose over the decade in such key indicators as militaryexpenditures and arms exports, where the US has becomefar and away the world’s largest, and armed forces, wherethe US rose from third to second, even as its share dropped.

US as Percent of the World

1985 1995 1985 1995

Military spending 27 32 GNP 23 23Arms exports 26 49 Total exports 11 12Arms imports 3 3 Total imports 18 16Armed forces 8 7 Population 5 5

This rise in US military status has resulted mainly fromsharp reductions in other parts of the world, due especiallyto the Soviet collapse and Cold War end, rather than USincreases. Since US military indicators dropped more slow-ly than those of the rest of the world, relative US militarystature rose.

Besides rising, US shares of the world for military indi-cators (except arms imports) are higher than for correspond-ing civilian or overall indicators, where shares have beenstable. Whether this military advantage persists maydepend on whether it derived mainly from a not-yet-dissi-pated Cold War momentum, domestic economic and politi-cal factors, or the US’s leading role in international securityaffairs, as well as future demands on that role.

South America's relatively fast annual growth in mili-tary spending during the latter half of the decade is duemainly to a rise of $4 billion in 1995, to a total of $23 bil-lion, marking an all-time decade high for the region. Muchof the 1995 rise can be credited to Brazil's dramatic $3.5 bil-lion increase, along with Colombia's $665 million, Chile's$366 million, and Peru's $121 million. Only Argentina andVenezeula experienced sizable drops from 1994, $328 mil-lion and $158 million, respectively. Brazil's $11 billion in1995 spending ranked 12th in the world.

South Asia's rising trend in 1991-1994 is attributableto India, which makes up about 60% of the region, andPakistan, about 30%. Both Indian and Pakistani militaryexpenditures fell in 1995, however, by $671 and $292 mil-lion, respectively. In terms of world rankings, India's $8 bil-lion in expenditures in 1995 places it 18th, while Pakistan,with roughly $4 billion, ranks 30th.

Oceania's spending has been rising steadily and mod-erately since 1989, with a slight drop in 1995. Australia,which dominates the region, continued a relatively stablelevel of spending in 1994 and 1995 of around $8.5 billion,ranking 16th in the world.

Other small regions have diverse trends. Spending inNorth Africa has been declining in most years of the decadeuntil bottoming in 1993-1994 and rising in 1995, due toLibya's $660 million upturn. Countries in SubsaharanAfrica overall, as well as South Africa, have been droppingsince 1993. Total spending in Central Asia and theCaucasus has levelled at around $3.5 billion in 1993-1995.Central America and Caribbean spending has dropped rapid-ly in the last half of the decade, particularly in 1992 and1995, led by reductions in Cuba, El Salvador, andNicaragua, with upturns in Haiti and Dominican Republic in1995.

The world armed forces total of 22.8 million soldiersin 1995 represented a 3% drop from 1994 and a continuationof the downward trend following the 1988 decade high of28.7 million (Main Table I). The worldwide trend was rela-tively flat over the first half of the decade but fell at a modest3% annual rate in the second half.

Total developing country forces fell only slightly, atan average rate of less than 1% over both periods. Nowtwice as large as the developed, they numbered 15.1 millionin 1995, down 2.5% from 1994 (Figure 5).

The armed forces of the developed country grouptotaled 7.7 million in 1995, 4% less than in 1994. Theycontinued to fall faster than those of the developing group,posting annual drop rates of 7% in 1991-1995 and 5% overthe entire decade.

Page 13: World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers 1996 · 2019. 9. 6. · Gulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was by far the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion

As a result of the differing trends, the forces of devel-oping countries have grown from 57% of the world total in1985 to two-thirds in 1995 (Table 2).

Thirteen of the world’s twenty largest armies in 1995belonged to developing countries (Figure 4 and CountryRankings). Of these, China, India, and North Korea hadforces of over 1 million soldiers each in 1995 and ranked 1st,4th and 5th in the world, respectively. The next three largestdeveloping country armies—Turkey, Pakistan, andVietnam—had armed forces totaling between roughly 550and 800 thousand and ranked 6th, 8th and 9th. The Ukraine,Iran, Egypt, Iraq, Burma, Syria, and Thailand—with forcesbetween roughly 300 and 500 thousand—rounded out the toptwenty.

Among developed countries, armed forces of theUnited States and Russia ranked second and third in theworld, respectively, roughly 1.5 million each. Together, thefive armies of a million or more made up over a third of theworld total in 1995.

Regional Trends

Nearly all regions followed at least mildly decliningtrends over the decade. Only South Asia had rising trendsover the decade and its second half. East Asian armedforces, more than twice as large as the next region's, foundtheir share of worldwide forces expanding to nearly a third.Eastern European and Central American forces droppedsharply, especially in 1990-1992. North America had thethird fastest rate of decline in the last half-decade.

East Asia

East Asian armies made up 32% of all armed forcesin 1995 compared to 30% in 1985. The dominant army—Mainland China's—had 2.9 million soldiers in 1995, 41% ofEast Asia's and 13% of the world's armed forces. The size ofits 1995 army held constant from 1994, ending a downwardtrend that began in 1989. Over the decade, China's army fellon average by 3.5% and slightly slower at 2.5% during1991-1995. China's army is roughly three times NorthKorea's, the next largest East Asian army with just over onemillion soldiers in 1995, down 13% from 1994. Over thedecade, North Korea's army grew on the order of 3.4% annu-ally, but fell during the latter half of the decade by 3% as aresult of the drop in 1995. The next three largest armies inEast Asia in 1995 were South Korea (655 thousand solders),Vietnam (550), and Taiwan (425). Of these, only Vietnamhad rapid change, an annual decline of 9% over the decadeand 12% over the latter half. The above five were amongthe 15 largest armies in the world in 1995, 1st, 5th, 7th, 9th,and 15th, respectively.

Western and Eastern Europe

Total European military strength fell to 6.3 millionsoldiers in 1995 following consecutive reductions during1987-1993 and a slight increase in 1994. European armiesdropped to 27.5% of world armed forces in 1995 comparedto a 34% share in 1985. This dramatic shift is due mostly toEastern Europe's fall from 20% of the world in 1985 tounder 14% in 1995.

Turkey has the largest army in Western Europe with805 thousand soldiers in 1995, down slightly from 1994. Itaccounts for over one quarter of Western Europe’s armedforces. Over the decade, Turkey's armed forces trendeddownward slightly but rose during 1991-1995.

France, with 504 thousand soldiers, Italy, 435, andGermany, 352, maintained the next largest armies inWestern Europe in 1995, together making up an additional41% of total regional strength. Each of these three declinedsteadily over the mid-to-late portion of the decade, withGermany's being the most rapid (3.5% over the decade and7% over the latter half). Turkey ranked 6th in the world interms of total armed forces in 1995, followed by France at10th, Italy at 13th, and Germany at 17th.

European members of NATO made up 64% ofNATO’s total strength in 1995, 48% of Europe's, 95% of theWestern European, and 13% of the world's.

Eastern Europe's armed forces have been reduced by45% from the beginning to the end of the decade, with the1995 total being the lowest level, although the trend wasnearly level in the last three years. Russia claims the largestarmy, with 1.4 million soldiers in 1995, 45% of the regionaltotal. Ukraine has the second largest army with 476 thou-sand soldiers and 15%, followed by Poland (278 thousand)and Romania (209). Poland and Romania have experiencedsubstantial growth in forces strength since 1993, Poland upby roughly 100,000 soldiers or 54%, and Romania up by42,000 soldiers or 25%. Over the decade both had strongdeclining trends. Russia's forces declined during 1992-1995at an annual rate of 9% while the Ukraine's grew at 2%.Russia ranked 3rd among the world's armed forces in 1995,the Ukraine, 11th, Poland, 23rd, and Romania, 28th.

Middle East

Armies of the Middle East accounted for 10% ofworld armed forces in 1995, totaling over 2.3 million sol-diers. The region's total fell by 86,000 soldiers from 1994 to1995, a 4% drop. A relatively mild 2% annual drop since1991 comes after sharp increases in the first half of thedecade with the Iran-Iraq and Gulf Wars, followed by a pre-cipitous 25% fall in 1991 alone.

Iran (440 thousand), Egypt (430), and Iraq (390) con-tinue to have the region’s largest armies, making up overhalf of the 1995 regional total. The next three largest armieswere Syria (320 thousand), Israel (185), and Jordan (112).

Iran and Iraq were the only Middle East countries toreduce their armies in 1995, Iran by 88 thousand soldiers or17% and Iraq by 35 thousand or 8%. Increases were experi-enced by Jordan, 12 thousand soldiers, and Saudi Arabia, 11thousand. The armies of Kuwait, Lebanon, and Omanincreased their armies by 5 thousand soldiers, while all oth-ers remained at their 1994 manpower levels. Over thedecade, Iran and Saudi Arabia grew annually on the order of3% and 11%, respectively, while Iraq dropped at an averagerate of 10%, mostly in 1991. Over the latter half of thedecade all major armies of the Middle East had decliningtrends, the most rapid being Syria's, with a 7% rate.

In 1995 Iran maintained the 12th largest army in theworld, followed by Egypt at 14th, Iraq at 16th and Syria at19th. Far out of line with their significance, Israel's was the30th largest and Jordan's, the 41st.

South Asia

South Asian armed forces totaled over 2.1 million sol-diers in 1995, over 9% of the world total and 11 thousandless than the previous year, ending a period of moderategrowth that began in 1989.

Indian and Pakistani armies make up 86% of theregion’s total strength, India alone accounting for almostthree-fifths. India's armed forces fell by 40 thousand sol-diers in 1995, returning its manpower to the 1993 level,while Pakistan's armed forces rose by 47 thousand, alsoreturning to roughly their 1993 size. Both nations had slowgrowth during both the decade and half-decade periods.India continues to possess the 4th largest army in the world,with 1.265 million soldiers in 1995, while Pakistan had the8th largest, with 587 thousand. Bangladesh's army, 115thousand soldiers strong, was only the 38th largest.

North America

The United States dominates North American armedforces strength. The US armed forces level of over 1.6 mil-lion in 1995—the world’s second largest army—is downroughly 100 thousand soldiers from 1994 and 659 thousandfrom its peak level in 1987. The 1995 US forces accountedfor 87% of the North America region, 21% of the developedcountries total, but only 5% of the world strength. Over thedecade, US forces fell at an annual rate of 4%, but thedecline quickened over the latter half of the decade, to 6%.Mexico, with 175 thousand soldiers, ranked 31st in the worldin 1995 and Canada, with 70 thousand, ranked 56th.

The remaining six developing regions of the world—North and Subsaharan Africa, South and Central America,Central Asia, and Oceania—accounted for 13% of theworld’s total armed forces in 1995, up by 1 percentage pointfrom 1985. No countries in these regions possessed armiesranking in the top twenty in 1995, and only Brazil, with 285thousand soldiers, and Morocco, with 195 thousand, rank inthe top thirty.

Force Ratios

The ratio of a country’s armed forces to its populationprovides a useful indicator of national military burden andeffort. A comparison of trends in armed forces, population,and the resulting “force ratio” shows some significant differ-ences between developed and developing countries and sharpdifferences among regions (Table 3; see also column 1 ofFigure 18 on page 28).

The force ratio for the world declined at an accelerat-ed 4.4% rate during the 1991-1995 period. In 1995 therewere four soldiers per thousand people, compared with justunder five in 1991 and nearly six in 1985. The force ratio ofdeveloped countries in 1995 was double that of the develop-ing, 6.6 compared to 3.3. Force ratios of both groups havefallen moderately, the annual rate of decline for developedcountries during both the decade and half-decade being morerapid than for developing countries.

In 1995, the Middle East had the highest force ratio ofany region with 10.7 soldiers per thousand people, followedby Eastern and Western Europe with 9.1 and 7.1, respective-ly, North Africa with 5.9, North America with 4.8, and EastAsia with 3.8. All remaining regions had lower force ratios.

North Korea continues to have the world’s largestarmy relative to its population, with slightly over 44 soldiersper thousand (see Country Rankings). This ratio is downalmost eight points from the 1994 rankings. Four other EastAsian countries—Taiwan (20), Singapore (18), Brunei (17),and South Korea (15) were also leading countries in terms ofthis ratio, though only Taiwan ranked in the world's top ten.

Five of the top ten countries in terms of this measurewere of the Middle East region. Israel ranked second in theworld with 35 soldiers per thousand people, Jordan followedat third with 27, Syria and the United Arab Emirates, eachwith 21, placed 5th and 6th in the world ranking, and Iraq,with a ratio of 19, ranked 10th. Three other Middle Eastnations—Qatar (19 soldiers), Oman (17), and Lebanon(15)—also ranked in the top twenty.

Countries with large populations tend to have smallforce ratios, of course, even if they have large armies.China, for example, with the world's largest army, has aforce ratio of 2.4, well below the modal value of 4.2, whileIndia with the fourth largest armed forces has a ratio of 1.4.

Arms Transfers

Figure 6. The World Arms Trade: 1961-1995

Note:

• Total arms imports equal arms exports at the worldlevel (only).

• Initial estimates of arms trade totals for the latestyear are based on incomplete data and tend to rise when reestimated in subsequent editions.

• With the previous edition, the scope of US arms exports was expanded to include exports of military services under the FMS program (see Statistical Notes, Arms Transfers).

The world arms trade rose by $5.2 billion in 1995, thefirst significant turn from a steep 16%-per-year, 8-year declinewhich ended in 1994 below the 1972 level (Figure 6 and MainTable II). The 1995 total of $32 billion brought the level backto only about two-fifths of the 1987 peak (in constant 1995dollars), but the upturn suggests that the post-Cold War plungein the arms trade may be bottoming out.

World arms sales agreements (as distinct from actualdeliveries—that is, exports or imports) also declined generallyover the decade from a 1985 peak of over $73 billion to a $32-34 billion level in 1992-1995, with the exception of a large$52 billion Gulf-War-induced "spike" in 1993. (Agreementsdata are in current dollars from Main Table IV.) Agreementlevels tend to be more erratic and less reliably estimated thandeliveries and have been especially volatile for the UnitedStates during the latter years of the decade. US agreementlevels also spiked in 1991 and 1993, the latter reaching $37billion before returning in 1995 to $13 billion, well below thedecade average and giving no indication of future growth.The 1995 upturn in world deliveries noted above may reflectthe agreements surge resulting from the Gulf War, which willtake years to realize.

The 1995 upturn in the world arms trade was theresult of a sharp $5.6 billion or 36% rise in the armsimports of developing countries, as developed countryimports continued to fall, though only by $.4 billion (Figure7). Both groups of countries began their continuous declinefrom high points in the same year, 1987, but the rate ofdecline from then until the 1994 low point was much steep-

er for the developing countries—a sharp 33% annually. Overthe entire period, the developing countries had a faster aver-age rate of fall despite the upturn in 1995 (Table 4).

The distribution of the world arms trade betweendeveloped and developing countries moved towards anincreasingly large share for the developed—from 29% in1985 to near equality, 45% in 1993, but then returned to amore traditional 33% in 1995.

Overview of Regions

Although all regions of the world had declining armsimport trends over the entire period from 1985 to 1995, thethree largest importing regions—the Middle East, East Asia,and Western Europe—declined more slowly than the rest andtheir leading positions rose, their combined share of worldimports going from 60% to 76% (Table 4). Their individualshares also rose, the Middle East reaching a relative peak of43%, and East Asia nearly doubling its share from 12 to 20%.Western Europe at 13% in 1995 was more than three timesthe next region. Eastern Europe had been a close fourth inregional rankings in 1985 but dropped to eighth by 1995 andwas replaced by South America, which rose to 4% with aspurt in 1995 after being one of the smallest importingregions in 1985 at 2%.

Of the 12 regions, seven raised their imports in 1995,but the Middle East alone accounted for over two-thirds ofthe 1995 world increase. For the Middle East, SouthAmerica, and South Asia, 1995 was the first year of upturnafter several year declines; for East Asia and North Africa, anupturn began in 1994.

Four regions continued their downward trend in1995—Western Europe, North America, Subsaharan Africa,and Central America. Western Europe had been decliningsince 1989, North America, since 1988, and at similar ratessince 1991 of 13% and 17%, respectively. Subsaharan Africadropped sharply in 1995, resuming a decline that began in1986 but was interrupted by spikes in 1987-1988 and 1994.

Central Asia continued a climb from virtually no trade in1992. Since year-to-year fluctuations in the arms trade can belarge, the world market shares over the cumulative 1993-1995period are also informative; in this case a generally similarpicture emerges (in millions of current dollars—based onMain Table III):

Middle East

The Middle East remains by far the largest regionalarms import market with $13.8 billion in purchases in 1995.Its 1995 world share of 43% is five percentage points higherthan the 38% share recorded in both 1994 and 1985. Theregion declined by an average 10% annually over the decade,but at a much slower 4% during 1991-1995, which can becredited mostly to a roughly 35% jump in 1995. Overall, the1995 total is roughly half of that recorded during the earlierpart of the decade.

In a sharp contrast to deliveries, arms purchase agree-ments by Middle East countries fell to a decade low of $5.6billion in 1995, less than half the total recorded in 1994 andone quarter of 1993's. These changes are mainly attributableto the dramatic spike in US agreements with the Middle Eastin 1993 amounting to over $16 billion, which then fellsharply in 1994 and 1995. French arms agreements with theMiddle East also brought about large shifts, rising from $100million in 1992 to $3.6 billion in 1993, to $6.6 billion in1994, and then falling to $1.9 billion in 1995. Over the peri-od 1993-1995, the US accounted for 58% of all arms agree-ments with the Middle East, and France, for another 30%.

During the latter part of the decade trends amongMiddle East countries varied widely as evidenced by the highgrowth rates (in %) of Oman (112), Yemen (85), Lebanon(75), the United Arab Emirates (19), Egypt (16), Jordan (8),and Kuwait (5) and by the rapidly declining trends of Syria(52) and Iran (37).

Other nations showed dramatic shifts in imports,including Saudi Arabia, which had posted consecutive reduc-tions in imports since 1991 (from a lofty $9.3 billion to $6.6billion in 1994) but rose to $8.6 billion in 1995. Egypt fellfrom $1.5 billion in 1993 to $1.2 billion in 1994 and then roseto $1.9 billion in 1995. Kuwait fell from a decade high of

over $1 billion in 1992 to $226 million in 1994 and rose to$900 million in 1995.

Israeli imports also fell from over $1 billion in 1993 to$615 million in 1994 and $340 million in 1995. Israeliimports have declined by an average 15% since 1991. Iranianimports totaled $270 million in 1995, marking a second con-secutive drop from the over $1 billion in purchases recordedin 1993. In contrast to Iran and Israel, Jordan and Oman post-ed consecutive increases since 1992, Jordan from $22 millionin 1992 to $70 million in 1995 and Oman from $11 million to$460 million.

The largest arms importers in the Middle East during1993-1995 were the following (in millions of current dollars;Main Table III):

Saudi Arabia $22,555 61.0%Egypt 4,495 12.2Israel 2,060 5.6Kuwait 2,055 5.6Iran 1,780 4.8United Arab Emir. 1,735 4.7

Others (9) 2,260 6.1

The six leading countries together accounted for 94% of the$37 billion worth of weapons and military equipment import-ed into the region during this period.

Saudi Arabia continues to dominate the Middle Eastregion and the world in terms of arms imports. Its 1995import volume of $8.6 billion accounted for over 62% of the

regional total and 27% of the world. It was 4.5 times that ofthe next largest regional and world importer, Egypt, whose$1.9 billion accounted for 14% of the regional total and 6% ofthe world total (Figure 12; Country Rankings). These twonations accounted for a combined 76% of all arms importedinto the region and 33% of the world total.

Other leading arms purchasers during this period wereKuwait and the United Arab Emirates, each accounting forroughly 6% of the regional market and 3% of the world mar-ket. The remaining eleven countries combined accounted for11% of all regional arms purchases during 1995 and 5% ofthe world total. In terms of rankings, Kuwait followed theworld leaders Saudi Arabia and Egypt as the eighth largestarms importer in the world during 1995, the United ArabEmirates ranked ninth, Oman ranked 17th, Israel ranked 21st,and Iran ranked 27th.

The United States, the number one arms supplier to theMiddle East, provided $18.4 billion in weaponry to the regionduring 1993-1995, roughly half of the region's total and 43%of total US sales (Main Table III). The United States’ largesttrade partners in the region were Saudi Arabia ($10.1 billion),Egypt ($4.1 billion), Israel ($1.7 billion), and Kuwait ($1.6billion). The United Kingdom was the second largest suppli-er to the region in this period with $11.4 billion, whichaccounted for 31% of the region's total imports and 77% oftotal UK sales. Saudi Arabia was the key recipient, consum-ing 90% of total UK sales to the region and 69% of its world-wide sales. The arms supplied to the region by these twoexporters accounted for 81% of regional purchases, 52% oftheir combined worldwide sales, and 34% of world trade.France ($2 billion) and Russia ($1.7 billion) were also majorsuppliers, accounting for a combined 10% of regionalimports. The key recipients in this case were Saudi Arabia,with $1.4 billion in purchases from France, and Iran, with $1billion from Russia.

East Asia

East Asia remains the second largest regional armsimport market for the second year. Its $6.4 billion in 1995purchases were 20% of the world total, eight percentagepoints more than the 12% share recorded in 1985. The 1995total marks the second straight rise for the region after havingfallen continuously from a peak of $10 billion in 1987 to lessthan half that amount in 1993, $4.3 billion. Increases in both1994 and 1995 put East Asian arms imports up 50% from1993. The region averaged a 6% annual decline during theentire decade, but grew on the order of 2.4% annually overthe latter part of the decade, reaching 65% of the 1987 recordpeak.

In 1995, the region's leading arms importers wereTaiwan with $1.2 billion and South Korea and Thailand with$1.1 billion each. These were followed by another trio,

Malaysia, China, and Japan, with $750-625 million. Togetherthese six accounted for 86% of East Asian imports in 1995.

The same sextet also accounted for about the sameportion of the nearly $16 billion imported during 1993-1995,as shown below in a listing of major importers over that peri-od (in millions of current dollars; Main Table III):

South Korea $3,505 22.1%Taiwan 3,215 20.2Japan 1,960 12.3Malaysia 1,920 12.1China 1,610 10.1Thailand 1,575 9.9Singapore 560 3.5Indonesia 300 1.9Vietnam 295 1.9

Others (7) 955 6.0

In terms of their arms import trends over the entire decade,the countries of the region have followed several generalpaths. Relatively steady trends (in constant dollars), withdecade-long average annual change rates, up or down, of 5%or less have been followed by most of the largest importersand some intermediate-sized importers, including Taiwan,South Korea, China, Thailand, Singapore, and thePhilippines. Several large importers at the beginning of thedecade fell drastically in the 1990-1993 interval, includingVietnam, North Korea, Indonesia, and Cambodia, with amoderate recovery in the 1994-1995 period (exceptCamdodia). Japan's imports have declined at an 8% rate overthe decade and somewhat faster (17%) in the latter half.

Malaysia began the decade at a high level, dropped to aplateau, then began an upturn that averaged 73% per year in1991-1995.

As a consequence of these patterns, arms imports inEast Asia have been spread more widely than in the MiddleEast. At various points in the decade, five different countrieshave been the region's largest importers (Vietnam, Japan,China, South Korea, and Taiwan). In 1995, East Asia's sixleading importers all had high world ranks in terms of armsimports—Taiwan (3), South Korea (4), Thailand (5),Malaysia (11), China (12), and Japan (15).

For several East Asian countries in 1995, even thoughtheir arms imports have dropped to relatively moderate levels,the ratio of arms to total imports was sizable, due to low totalimports (Main Table II):

Arms imports Arms as % of(million $) total imports

Burma $140 10.5%North Korea 100 5.8Cambodia 20 3.2Vietnam 200 2.7

Region average — 0.6

The United States is the number one supplier to EastAsia, providing over $8 billion in weaponry to the region dur-ing 1993-1995, roughly half of the region's total armsimports. The United States’ largest trade partners in theregion were Taiwan ($3.2 billion), Japan ($1.9 billion), SouthKorea ($1.4 billion), and Thailand ($1.1 billion). Russia wasthe second largest supplier during this period, providing some$2.2 billion or 14% of the region's total imports. China wasthe recipient of over half of these sales, followed by Malaysia($550 million) and Vietnam ($290 million). During this peri-od, the combined sales to the region by these two exportersaccounted for 65% of regional purchases and almost one-fifthof their combined worldwide sales. The United Kingdom andGermany, both with roughly $1.7 billion in sales to East Asiaduring 1993-1995, accounted for a combined 21% of theregional arms imports. Key recipients from these supplierswere Malaysia, with $1.2 billion from the United Kingdom,and South Korea, with $1.5 billion from Germany.

Data on agreements, in contrast to the delivery datadiscussed above, suggest further increases in the future.Arms purchase agreements by East Asian countries rose from$6.6 billion in 1994 to $8.8 billion in 1995, which can beattributed mainly to Russian agreements, which rose sharplyto $4.7 billion from $2 billion in 1994.

with East Asia peaked at $9.6 billion in 1993 but fell toroughly one-third of that amount in 1994 and fell further to$2.5 billion in 1995. This accounted for 28% of total region-al arms agreements, while Russian sales made up 53%.

Trends within Europe

Western Europe, with imports totaling over $4 billionin 1995 and $13.3 billion during 1993-1995, is the thirdlargest arms importing region. Western Europe overshad-owed the Eastern half in 1995 by importing 13% of totalworldwide imports and 83% of imports by Europe as awhole. The 1995 reduction of 7% in Western Europe's armsimports continued a consecutive yearly decline since the peakof $11.4 billion in 1989. Eastern Europe has experiencedsporadic ups and downs in imports during this period, drop-ping steadily from $9 billion in 1986 to a mere $38 million in1992, back up to $1.4 billion in 1993, down to $272 millionin 1994, then up to $835 million in 1995. Europe as a wholeaveraged a 13% annual decline during the entire decade and a10% annual decline during the latter half. The Western halfdeclined at a more rapid 13% during the later half of thedecade and at a slower 7% over the 1985-1995 period.Eastern Europe conversely reduced its imports by 31% annu-ally over the decade, but grew rapidly at 53% during 1991-1995.

Among Western European countries, only Austria(6%), Greece (6%), and Portugal (2%) had growing armsimports over the decade, while Spain (29%), Austria (18%),Greece (18%), and Belgium (1%) showed growth during thelatter half. Most of those with declining trends had muchmore rapid reductions during the latter half of the decade.Over the entire decade, nine Western European countriesdeclined between 5-10% annually, five between 10-20%, andone over 20%. This differs sharply with the latter half of thedecade when only one country had annual declines between5-10%, four, between 10-20%, and eight, over 20%. Severalnations with previously high arms imports reduced them dra-matically over the latter part of the period, notablySwitzerland and Germany.

Western Europe's four leading arms importers—Turkey ($3 billion), Greece ($2.2 billion), Spain ($1.6 bil-lion), and Germany ($1.3 billion)—together accounted for61% of the $13.3 billion worth of weapons and militaryequipment imported into the region during 1993-1995. In1995 alone, the region's leading importers were Greece ($825million, 10th in the world and one-fifth of regional imports),Turkey ($700 million, 13th), Spain ($675 million, 14th),Belgium ($340 million, 20th), and Germany ($310 million,22nd). These nations accounted for a combined 71% of allarms imported into Western Europe during 1995.

The United States is the number one supplier toWestern Europe, providing roughly $9 billion in weaponry tothe region during 1993-1995, two-thirds of the regional total.The United States’ largest trade partners in the region wereTurkey ($2.3 billion), Spain ($1.3 billion), Greece ($1.2 bil-lion), and Germany ($1 billion). Germany and France—thenext largest suppliers during this period—each exported some$1.1 billion in arms to others in the region, accounting for17% of the region's total. Big purchasers from Germanyincluded Greece ($525 million) and Sweden ($280 million),while Belgium ($280 million) purchased a large share ofFrench intra-regional sales. The UK's intra-regional salestotaled a much smaller $325 million during 1993-1995.

Eastern Europe imported some $2.5 billion in armsduring 1993-1995, with most imports going to Hungary($950 million or 38% of its regional total) and Slovakia ($550million, 22%). The largest supplier of arms was Russia,which provided over $1.3 billion during this period, thewhole amount imported by these two leading recipients.

Other Regional Trends

The nine other regions of the world accounted for one-fifth of total worldwide arms sales in 1995, compared to two-fifths in 1985. This downward shift can be credited mostly toreduced arms imports by Africa (nearly 8 percentage pointslower in 1995 than in 1985) and South Asia (4 percentagepoints lower). By contrast, South and North America andOceania each increased their share of the market over thedecade.

South America’s sharp rise in arms imports from $472million in 1994 to $1.3 billion in 1995 made it the fourthlargest importing region with slightly over 4% of the world-wide market. This jump can be credited to big increases inpurchases by a handful of countries, mainly Chile (up by$267 million), Peru ($218 million), Ecuador ($209 million),and Brazil ($67 million). Of the other South American armspurchasers, five had small increases in 1995 and only one hada decline.

Overall, regional imports grew at a rate of nearly 7% ayear in 1991-1995. Ecuador (72%), Chile (42%), Argentina(29%), and Peru (29%) had much higher growth during thisperiod. Argentina's arms imports remained relatively lowcompared to the high mid-to-late 1980's purchases, as didColombia's, following a surge of imports during 1988-1992.

Over the 1993-1995 period, the key arms importerswere Chile ($525 million), Brazil ($430 million), Peru ($375million), and Ecuador ($370 million), consuming well over

three-fourths of the $2.2 billion in regional purchases. TheUnited States was the largest supplier of arms during thisperiod, providing 17% of the total, while nations of theMiddle East contributed an additional 17%.

North America, the fifth largest importing region,accounted for slightly under 4% of the worldwide market in1995. The United States, Canada, and Mexico each reducedtheir level of imports in 1995, and all three had moderateannual rates of decline over the latter half of the decade. TheUnited States dominated this market in 1995 and 1993-1995,accounting for 81% of imports in both cases. The UnitedKingdom was the top supplier of arms to North America, with$1.2 billion in sales, all going to the United States. TheUnited States ranked sixth in terms of worldwide armsimports in 1995.

Pakistan and India continued to dominate South Asiain terms of arms purchases in 1995, accounting for roughlyfour-fifths of regional imports. Both increased their importsfrom 1994, Pakistan from $297 million to $480 million andIndia from $236 million to $410 million, or by 62% and 74%,respectively. Over the decade and half-decade periods,India's imports declined at substantial rates, around 26%,while Pakistani purchases declined slightly by 3% a year overthe decade but rose over the latter half at a 9% rate. SriLankan imports continued to climb rapidly, rising to $160million in 1995 (at an annual rate of 60% since 1991).

China and Russia continued to be the primary suppliersof arms to South Asia, providing 32% and 28%, respectively,of the $2.7 billion in imports during 1993-1995. Most ofChina's sales went to Pakistan ($625 million), while most ofRussia's went to India ($675). France was also a big supplierduring this period with $430 million in sales, all going toPakistan. South Asia's leading arms importers were close inworld rank, Pakistan at 16th and India at 18th.

In the remaining regions, Australia increased its armspurchases considerably in 1995 from $410 million to $900million and accounted for 94% of Oceania's regional importsin both 1995 and the 1993-1995 period. Australia's importsgrew at an annual rate of 9% during 1991-1995 compared to a9% decline over the entire decade. The United States ($1.1billion) and Germany ($500 million) supplied Oceania withmost of its weapons, most going to Australia. Australiaranked seventh in worldwide arms imports.

In Central Asia, Kazakstan's $280 million accountedfor four-fifths of the region's 1995 arms imports. It also dom-inated the market over the 1993-1995 period, claiming $360million of the $535 million in total imports. Of all armsimported into Central Asia during 1993-1995, 83% camefrom Russia and an additional 13% came from other EasternEuropean countries.

Algeria ($395 million) and Morocco ($235 million)imported 85% of the total arms purchased by North Africa

during 1993-1995. Algerian arms imports have risen consec-utively since falling sharply to $5 million in 1992. Moroccocontinues to be a sporadic arms importer.

Angola ($1.1 billion) and Sudan ($260 million) led theSubsaharan Africa arms import market during 1993-1995 andcontinue to be sporadic arms importers. South Africa import-ed an additional $800 million in arms during the 1993-1995period and continues to be a stable importer of relatively largeamounts of arms into the region.

The combined imports of Cuba and El Salvador in theamount of $100 million each accounted for two-thirds of theCentral American and Caribbean arms market during 1993-1995, although Cuba imported zero arms in 1995 and ElSalvador's purchases have dropped steadily since 1992.Russia and the United States are the key suppliers to Cubaand El Salvador, respectively.

At the world level, totals for arms exports and armsimports are opposite sides of the coin and behave identically,with matching drops in volume and annual rates of decline.Thus, as with total imports, total exports were $32 billion in1995, an increase of $5.6 billion or 20% from the previousyear, after falling steeply by over 60% from their 1987 highpoint to the 1994 low. As with world imports, totals for thelatest years are likely to be revised upward in future editions.

The 1995 upturn can be credited mostly to the devel-oped country grouping, here considered as arms exportersrather than importers (and redefined in the WMEAT 1995 edi-tion; see Statistical Notes, Coverage. . .). Developed coun-tries' arms sales, 94% of the total, increased $5.2 billion in1995, up 21% from 1994. Developing countries exports, 6%of the world's, increased as well in 1995, but only by about$100 million, an increase of 5%. Arms exports by developedcountries were 55% less in 1995 than in 1985, while those ofdeveloping countries fell by 61%. Over the decade armsexports fell by an annual rate of 11% for developed countriesand 13% for developing, while over the latter half of the

decade the rates of decline were 5.5% and 6%, respectively(Table 5 and Figure 12).

Most of the significant arms exporting regionsincreased their exports in 1995 slightly to substantially—including North America, Western Europe, Eastern Europe,and the Middle East. Since their peaks in 1987-1989, theseregions' exports had fallen sharply to 1992, after which fluc-tuating but generally level trends set in. The exception wasEast Asia, whose arms export level continued its falling trendalmost every year, including 1995. Also uncharacteristic wasthe Middle East, whose level rose steadily from 1992 (Figure13). By 1995 the world share of other regions had declined,

Page 25: World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers 1996 · 2019. 9. 6. · Gulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was by far the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion

particularly South America's and North Africa's, to .2% orless (Table 5).

The top five suppliers of arms in 1995—United States,United Kingdom, Russia, France and Germany—each soldover $1 billion in weaponry, the five combined totaling over$27 billion or 86% of the worldwide market. Weaponsexports by the US amounted to $15.6 billion, three times thatof the next largest supplier, the United Kingdom ($5.2 bil-lion). The next five largest arms exporters after the topfive—Israel, China, Sweden, Iran, and Canada—totaled $2.3billion in 1995, 7% of worldwide sales.

Less subject to annual fluctuations are the shares ofthe world arms export market in the 1993-1995 period heldby major exporters and groups (Figure 14). Besides US andUK preeminence and the diminished Russian share, the lowFrench and non-European shares are noteworthy. The figureis based on Main Table III, which also shows sales of majorsuppliers to recipient countries in that period.

The shifting annual world market shares of the majorexporters over the 1985-1995 decade are shown in Table 6,where it may be seen that US ascendancy coincided with thedecline of the Soviet Union/Russia. Notable also is thesteady growth of the UK share over the decade.

In 1995 there were a total of 50 nations (three fewerthan 1994's total) exporting arms to 98 recipients (one fewerthan in 1994; see Country Rankings section). Of all devel-oped nations, only six—Austria, Finland, Greece, Iceland,Ireland, and Luxembourg—had zero arms exports. Of the tenlargest arms suppliers in 1995, China ($625 million) and Iran($290 million) were the only developing nations. The nextlargest developing arms exporters were Eastern Europeancountries Belarus ($170 million), the Ukraine ($160 million),and Bulgaria ($150 million), ranking 12th, 13th, and 14th,respectively, in the world in 1995. There were 19 otherdeveloping arms exporters in 1995, all selling less than $70million in weapons.

United States

The United States dominates the arms export marketwith nearly half of the world total. US sales increased 28%from $12.2 billion in 1994 to $15.6 billion in 1995. Over thedecade, US sales took a slow 3% annual decline and an evenslower 2% decline over the last five years. The US share ofNorth American sales, which has historically been 95%, roseto 98% in 1995. Canada, a relatively small exporter com-pared to the US, nevertheless was the 10th largest in 1995with $280 million.

During 1993-1995, the United States exported equalamounts of arms to developed and developing countries, $21billion each. It exported $12.4 billion to OPEC countries andanother $9 billion to NATO countries. The US's largestrecipient region was the Middle East, followed by WesternEurope and East Asia. US arms exports by region in 1993-1995 are shown below (in millions of current dollars):

US weapons exports to the Middle East in 1993-1995went primarily to four major recipients—Saudi Arabia ($10billion), Egypt ($4 billion), Israel ($1.7 billion), and Kuwait($1.6 billion), which made up 95% of US sales to the MiddleEast and 41% of total US sales. Western Europe's leadingrecipients were Turkey ($2.3 billion), Spain ($1.3 billion),Greece ($1.2 billion), and Germany ($1 billion), accountingfor a combined 65% of US arms to the region and 14% oftotal US sales. East Asia's leaders—Taiwan ($3.2 billion),Japan ($1.9 billion), South Korea ($1.4 billion), and Thailand($1.1 billion)—took 93% of US sales to the region and 18%of total US exports.

Oceania imported $1.1 billion in arms from the UnitedStates during 1993-1995, almost all going to Australia.Central America purchased $180 million in arms from theUS, with over half of this amount going to El Salvador. Theremaining regions—Africa ($370 million), South America($370 million), South Asia ($115 million), and EasternEurope ($30 million)—purchased relatively smaller amountsof arms from the US.

Shown in Table 7 is the US share of total regionalarms imports, also cumulative for 1993-1995, by deliveriesand agreements (Main Table III and Main Table IV). TheUS continues to account for high shares of agreements withdeveloped countries and particular regions, notably Oceania,Western Europe, East Asia, and the Middle East.

Western Europe

Western Europe was the second largest arms exportingregion in 1995 with $9.4 billion in sales or 30% of the worldtotal, almost five percentage points higher than in 1985. Thiswas the second consecutive year of small rises since regional

exports reached a decade low of slightly under $9 billion in1993. Compared to the United States, Western Europeanarms sales declined at slightly faster rates over the decade(7%) and over the half decade (5%). Western Europe's leadover the Eastern half continued to grow, with 70% ofEuropean arms exports in 1995 compared to 61% in 1991,45% in 1990, and 38% in 1985.

The three major Western European arms exporters—the United Kingdom, France, and Germany—dominated theregion in 1995 with a combined 89% of Western Europeansales and 30% of world sales. Over the period 1993-1995,these three totaled $24 billion, 27% of the world total. Interms of the distribution of exports to developed and develop-ing countries, the United Kingdom had the largest share of itscumulative 1993-1995 sales going to developing countries,primarily OPEC members:

These countries also differed in the percentage of theirtotal arms exports going to other NATO members (UK, 9;France, 22; Germany, 24) and to other Western Europeancountries (UK, 14; France, 10; Germany, 13).

The United Kingdom's weapons exports of $5.2 bil-lion in 1995 ranked second in the world and made up 54% ofWestern European sales and 16% of world sales. The UK isthe only major supplier with a growing trend in sales over thedecade (3% annually) and has been virtually level over thelast half-decade. During 1993-1995, the United Kingdomexported $11.4 billion (77%) of its arms to the Middle East,with 90% of this amount going to Saudi Arabia. Omanimported $725 million in arms from the United Kingdomduring this same period. East Asia was the UnitedKingdom's second largest recipient region with almost $1.7billion in purchases (11% of total), followed by NorthAmerica, with $1.2 billion (8%), all by the United States.

France exported $2.2 billion in weapons in 1995, anincrease of $662 million from 1994 and the second consecu-tive rise since reaching a decade low of $1.1 billion in 1993.France ranked fourth in the world in 1995 and accounted for23% of Western European and 7% of world exports. Overthe decade, France's arms sales declined at an annual rate of14%, but more slowly (3%) during the latter half. During1993-1995, the French exported $2 billion (42%) of theirarms to the Middle East, with Saudi Arabia, also a keyFrench recipient, consuming 70% of sales to the region and29% of total sales. Arms exports amounting to well over $1billion to others within Western Europe made that region thesecond largest recipient, consuming 23% of the French total.

North America purchased $430 million from France during1993-1995, while Africa purchased $360 million, with $130million going to South Africa.

Germany's $1.2 billion in exports in 1995 was $235million less than in 1994 and marked a second consecutivefall. German sales in 1995 were 55% lower than in 1991, thedecade's peak year. Germany ranked fifth in the world in1995 and accounted for 12% of total Western European and4% of world sales. Over the decade, German arms salesdeclined at a 4% annual rate and at a more rapid 12% duringthe latter half. During 1993-1995, Germany exported 38%($1.6 billion) of its arms to East Asia (mostly South Korea),27% ($1.1 billion) to others in Western Europe, and 11%($500 million) to Oceania (all going to Australia).

Other notable Western European arms exporters in1995 include Sweden, ranked 8th in the world with $310 mil-lion; Netherlands, 11th with $230 million; and Italy andBelgium, 15th and 16th with $150 million and $130 millionrespectively. Only the Netherlands, Turkey, and Spainshowed growth during the latter half of the decade.

Russia

Russian arms exports in 1995, at $3.3 billion, showedlittle sign of revival from the extreme lows of $2.5 billion in1992 and $1.5 billion in 1994, following the Soviet collapse.Nevertheless, in the diminished post-Soviet market, Russiaranked third in arms deliveries in 1995, after the US and theUK, with 10% of world exports and 81% of EasternEuropean exports. Russia's arms agreements, however, showa continuous rise to the $9 billion level in 1995 from a low ofunder $2 billion in 1992 and indicate probable future increas-es in exports (Main Table IV).

Over the 1993-1995 period, Russia's nearly $8 billionin cumulative exports were distributed to regional importersas follows (in millions of current dollars; Main Table III):

East Asia $2,235 28%Middle East 1,715 22Eastern Europe 1,315 16Africa, All 795 10South Asia 740 9Central Asia 445 6Western Europe 385 5

World 7,925 100

These data show that Russia's arms exports were fairly wide-spread among regions, more so than other suppliers', andwith several key recipients in most regions.

Future deliveries are likely to follow the rise in agreements in1995 cited above, which were mainly in East Asia andCentral Asia and Caucasus.

Arms Suppliers and Developing Country Imports

Major shifts have taken place in the suppliers of armsto the developing countries as a group. Table 9 shows thatthe major suppliers have differed considerably in the typicalshare of their exports going to developing countries, andchanges in this pattern have occurred over the decade. In thecase of Russia or the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom,France, and China, the predominant share of their armsexports—from three-quarters to nearly 100 percent—havegone to developing countries. For the UK, the share hasincreased over the decade, while for France, it decreased. Inthe case of the United States and Israel, this share has aver-aged just under half for the decade as a whole, although it

reached that mark in 1995. Germany and Canada on averagehave been considerably less oriented toward the developingcountries and, along with other Western European suppliers,have become less so over the decade.

The share of each of these major suppliers in the totalarms imports of developing countries as a group, shown inTable 10, has also shifted over the decade, with the UnitedStates replacing the Soviet Union/Russia as the largest sup-plier, the United Kingdom rising to second place, and Francedropping from second to fourth.

Developing countries exported roughly $1.9 billion inarms in 1995, up by $1 billion from 1994 and marking an endto consecutive reductions in total sales since peaking atroughly $8.3 billion in 1988. The group’s share of worldexports in 1995 was 6%. Over the decade, developing coun-try arms exports dropped annually by an average 13%, butthe rate of decline was considerably slower during the latterhalf, 6%. Only a handful of countries play significant rolesin exporting weapons as indicated by 1995 totals. China isby far the most important supplier, with $625 million in salesin 1995, followed by Iran, with $290 million, and EasternEuropean nations Belarus ($170 million), Ukraine ($160 mil-lion), and Bulgaria ($150 million). All other developingarms exporters sold less than $100 million in 1995.

China's total arms exports in 1995 fell by $118 mil-lion, marking its seventh consecutive drop since peaking atover $3.7 billion in 1988. Over the decade, Chinese armsexports fell annually by 9%, and at a much faster 20% dur-ing 1991-1995. China was the world’s seventh leading armsexporter in 1995, down three places from the 1994 ranking.China exported some $2.5 billion in weaponry during 1993-

1995, about 3% of total world sales. Of these sales, 93%went to developing countries and a considerable amount($590 million or 25% of China's total sales to developingcountries) went to OPEC countries. China's main recipientsduring 1993-1995 were Pakistan ($625 million), Iran ($490million), Burma ($310 million), and Sri Lanka ($210 mil-lion), the four combined accounting for two-thirds of China’stotal arms sales.

Eastern European countries can be credited with muchof the developing country group's billion dollar rise in 1995.Belarus exports amounted to $170 million in 1995 (from zerosales during the first three years of its existence), Bulgaria'stotal arms sales rose by $88 million, and the Ukraine's roseby $68 million. Iran also experienced a sizable increase inarms sales in 1995, from $82 million in 1994 to $210 millionin 1995. In terms of world ranking, these nations ranked12th, 14th, 13th, and 9th, respectively.

Another measure of the arms trade besides the totaldollar value of all arms exports is the number of units ofmajor weapons transferred. This indicator continues to showa similar picture of a major downturn over the decade interms of the overall total, although exports of numerousweapon types increased during 1993-1995 compared to1990-1992. The number of weapons by major type deliveredto all countries of the world over the last four three-year peri-ods are as follows (in units; Main Table V):

Such broad quantity measures, of course, can obscure thelarge variability in size, complexity, and military effective-ness that is possible within a single combination of weapon-type, supplier, and year, as well as across these three dimen-sions. Nonetheless, the quantity of transfers by weapon typecan be a useful indication of the flow of arms.

The decline in major weapons deliveries mirrors thatof the overall pattern of decline for worldwide deliveries,with a 69% decline in gross numbers recorded across the fourperiods recorded and a 35% decline over the latter two peri-ods. Delivery totals by type did show growth for some majorweapon types during the last period. Deliveries of armoredpersonnel carriers increased from 4,900 units in 1990-1992 to7,282 in 1993-1995; major surface combatants, from 19 to54; submarines, from 4 to 17; subsonic combat aircraft, from168 to 227; helicopters, from 645 to 714; and surface-to-airmissiles, from 7,953 to 8,030.

The Soviet Union/Russia supplied the largest numberof weapons over the entire 12-year period, providing 33% ofall major weapons sold (Table 11). France had the secondlargest share with 25%, followed by the United States with9%, China with 5%, and Germany and the United Kingdom,each with 3%. Soviet dominance was as high as 38% from1984-1989, but fell behind France (32%) after 1990. During1993-1995, France's share of total major weapons transferredfell to 22%, Russia and the United States each had a 19%share, Germany, 12%, China, 4%, and the United Kingdom,3%. These shares across the six major suppliers representdrops from the previous period for France, China, and Russiaand increases for Germany, the United States, and the UnitedKingdom.

Soviet/Russian transfer quantities predominated innumerous weapon types during 1984-1995, including tanks(42% of the world total number), armored personnel carriers(38%), missile attack boats (41%), supersonic aircraft (38%),helicopters (36%), surface-to-air missiles (42%), and surface-to-surface missiles (81%). The United States led the marketin terms of subsonic aircraft sold during this period (35%)and anti-ship missiles (25%), France led in artillery (57%),Germany, in major surface combatants (27%) and missileattack boats (39%), and China, in submarine sales (55%).

The Middle East received the largest number of majorweapons over the entire 12-year period, with 61,429 or 31%of the total (Main Table V). Of these weapons, roughly 59%were land armaments, 36% were missiles, 5% were aircraftand 1% were naval craft. France supplied 26% of all major

arms supplied to the Middle East during the decade, followedby the Soviet Union/Russia with 24%, the United States with11%, and China with 10%. During 1993-1995 the MiddleEast fell behind Western Europe as the leading importer ofmajor weapons, with some 2,319 fewer total weapons deliv-ered, a 22% share. Additionally, the distribution of suppliersto the Middle East continues to shift, with the United Statesduring 1993-1995 providing over half of total deliveries,Russia providing 14%, and the United Kingdom providing8%.

Western Europe imported 50,246 major weapons intothe region over the entire decade, a close second to theMiddle East, and led the world with 7,533 major weaponspurchased during the last three-year period, 24% and 32% of

Page 32: World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers 1996 · 2019. 9. 6. · Gulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was by far the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion

total sales, respectively. Overall, internal trade amongFrance (with 60% of the total market), Germany (11%), andthe United Kingdom (4%) accounted for three-fourths of themarket. The United States provided 8% of the total majorweapons delivered into the regions, and the SovietUnion/Russia provided 3%. The latest period of the decadeclosely mirrors the overall period in the breakdown of suppli-ers, but with France (38%) and Germany (36%) having near-ly equal internal shares of the market. Of the total majorweapons delivered into Western Europe, 57% were landarmament weapons, 37% were missiles, and 6% were air-craft. In the last three-year period, Western Europe shiftedslightly from land armaments (52%) to missiles (41%).

South Asia imported 28,005 major weapons duringthe entire decade and 2,004 during the 1993-1995 period,15% and 9% of the total market, respectively. During the1984-1995 period, the region received 82% of its majorweapons from the Soviet Union/Russia, but during 1993-1995 South Asian imports came primarily from France(40%), due largely to the sale of surface-to-air missiles. Ofthe total major weapons delivered into South Asia during1984-1995, 57% were land armament weapons, 35% weremissiles, and 6% were aircraft.

Africa as a whole imported 21,504 major weaponsduring the decade, 70% of these going into the Subsaharanregion. Total African imports have fallen dramatically over

the decade, a continuance of a trend started prior to thebreakup of the Soviet Union, despite a slight increase inNorth African imports during 1993-1995. There were 1,544weapons delivered to Africa during 1993-1995, 7% of totalworld deliveries. Of these, 59% were land armamentweapons, 32% were missiles, and 8% were aircraft.

East Asia imported 13,845 major weapons during theentire decade and 2,845 during the 1993-1995 period, 7%and 12% of the total market, respectively. During thedecade, the region depended primarily on the United States(30% share of the market), Russia (24%), France (12%),China (10%), and the United Kingdom (9%) for its weapons.Of the total major weapons delivered into South Asia, 51%were missiles, 34% were land armament weapons, and 13%were aircraft.

The remaining regions—North, South, and CentralAmerica, Central Asia, and Oceania—imported many fewerweapons. Their combined total of 11,099 major weaponsimports during 1984-1995 was 5% of the world total.However, the region's 3,822 major weapons delivered during1993-1995 accounted for a much higher 16%. This shift canbe credited mostly to South America's purchase of 1,580 sur-face-to-air missiles, 41% of total deliveries.

The discussion above and the main content of the sta-tistical tables that begin on page 49 are devoted to the basicmilitary indicators that are the subject of this report, namely,military expenditures, arms transfers, and armed forces. Inorder to give perspective to those military indicators, severalbasic economic indicators for each country are also presentedin the tables, including population, gross national product(GNP), central government expenditures (CGE), and total

trade. These make it possible to place the military measuresin socio-economic context, both within one country andamong other countries. Figure 18 presents 10 such relativeindicators for 1995, averaged for major groupings of coun-tries and regions, in a way that permits their comparison bothacross the world for a single indicator and across a givengroup for all the indicators. In the Country Rankings tablesbelow, countries are ranked in terms of these relative indica-

Average Relative Indicators

The ten average ratios for the world, regions, andother country groupings in Figure 18 are based on data forbasic military and economic variables by country in MainStatisitcal Tables I and II, below. In the Country Rankingstables, all countries are ranked in 1995 for these relativeindicators as well as for the main absolute measures.

The average indicators in Figure 18 are calculatedas the ratio of the group total of the numerator variable tothe group total of the denominator variable. Such a ratio isequivalent to the weighted average of individual country

ratios, with the denominator variable serving as the weight-ing factor. Such an average ratio can differ considerablyfrom a simple average of individual country ratios, particu-larly when a very large country (e.g., China, Russia, US) isin the group. Also, when the denominator is a value mea-sure such as GNP, the relative weights of the countries canshift from edition to edition of this report due to the changein the basic year for currency conversion and changes inrelative average exchange rates that occur from year toyear. See Statistical Notes, Conversion . . . to dollars, forfuther discussion of the impacts of changes in exchangerates.

tors as well as the main military measures.

One such relative indicator, the force ratio, or theratio of armed forces to population, has been discussedabove in the Armed Forces section of these highlights andalso appears in the first column of Figure 18. Selected otherindicators are treated briefly below, including the main "bur-den" ratio, military expenditures-to-GNP; military expendi-tures-to-CGE; military expenditures per capita; militaryexpenditures per member of the armed forces; and two arms-to-total trade ratios.

The ME/GNP Ratio

One of the most commonly used measures of the"military burden" is the ratio of militay expenditures toGNP, ME/GNP (column 2 of Figure 18). The averageME/GNP burden ratio for the world fell to 2.8% in 1995,continuing a trend of consecutive reductions since 1986.The 1995 ratio fell to just over half of that recorded at thebeginning of the decade and is the same ratio for both devel-oped and developing countries as well as the world (Table11 and Main Table I). Both the world and the developedcountry ratios dropped from 3% in 1994. These two ratiosare historically close to each other or identical since thisratio is weighted by GNP. The developing country ME/GNPratio, on the other hand, had been higher than the developedat the beginning of the decade, then dropped faster until arise in 1990 under Middle East influence, then again droppedfaster until 1994-1995, when it stayed at the same 2.8%level.

Overall, the ME/GNP ratio declined in all regionsover the decade. The largest drops were posted in theMiddle East, with almost 9 percentage points less in 1995than in 1985, Eastern Europe, 5 points less, and NorthAfrica, 4.

The Middle East had the highest ratio, 7.9%, of anyregion in 1995; it and Eastern Europe were the only regionsof the world to record ME/GNP ratios over 5%. The MiddleEast has shown steady annual declines from the very highratios in the high-to-mid teens recorded at the beginning ofthe decade and during the 1990-1992 Gulf War bulge. The1995 ratio was nearly 10 percentage points less than thedecade high of 17.4% recorded in 1986.

Four Middle East countries—Oman (17%), SaudiArabia (14%), Kuwait (12%), and Israel (10%)—had ratiosof 10% or higher in 1995 despite sizable previous declines.Kuwait and Saudi Arabia peaked in 1991 and dropped as aresult of the post-Gulf War reductions in spending. Israeland Oman, on the other hand, reduced over the entiredecade. Israel's peak was in 1985 at over 20%, whileOman's was in 1986 at 27%.

Of the remaining countries, all except Jordan (8%)and Syria (7%) had ratios of 6% or lower. Iran’s ratio of2.6% in 1995, though roughly estimated, comes after a con-tinuous decline from the high ratios of the early years of thedecade and is 8 percentage points lower than in 1986, thepeak year.

Six of the eleven countries in the world with estimat-ed ME/GNP ratios of 10% or over were in the Middle East,including the four mentioned above plus Iraq and Yemen,whose absolute values are only roughly estimated. Bosniaand Herzegovina (NA), North Korea (29%), Serbia andMontenegro (NA), Russia (11%—although see discussionbelow), and Croatia (10%) are the remaining countries withratios reaching this level.

Estimates of the burden ratio for most of the formerWarsaw Pact countries and successors states after the col-lapse of the Soviet Union continue to be very rough andhighly tentative; they should be treated with extra caution.Estimates reported here are often derived from a variety ofsources that may not be consistent either within or among

themselves as to relationships among variables or over time.In particular, the nominal ME/GNP burden ratios shown herefor Russia in 1992-1995 are probably somewhat high; othersources estimate the ratio for Russia to be in a range wellunder 10%. Consequently, the burden ratio for those countrygroupings in which Russia has a large weight, such asEastern Europe and the former Warsaw Pact, may also beoverstated. The North Korean military expenditures estimateis also highly tentative.

The decline of North Africa's burden ratio by almostfour percentage points over the decade can be credited main-ly to Libya, whose ratio has fallen from 13% in 1989 to 6%in 1995.

The burden ratios of North America and WesternEurope each have undergone modest decline over thedecade, by two and one percentage points, respectively.

The ratio for NATO as a whole declined over thedecade by almost two percentage points, from a high ofalmost 5% in 1985 to 3% in 1995. Greece (5.5%), theUnited States (4%), and Turkey (4%) had the highest ratiosof all NATO countries, the remaining countries recordingratios of 3% or less.

throughout the entire matrix suggests that relative incomelevel or stage of development is not a critical determinant ofthe burden ratio. Involvement in civil or external war, mili-tary threats by neighbors, or overemphasis on military powerare probably more relevant determinants, along with the fun-damental influence of the absolute income (or GNP) level.

The series of annual matrices of this kind contained insuccessive editions of this report have reflected the generaltendency of burden ratios to decline in recent years, in thatthe most dense cells in the matrix have moved downward.However, that tendency does not appear in a comparison ofthe matrix for 1995 shown here with the matrix for 1994 pub-lished in WMEAT 1995. In fact, the present matrix for 1995has some upward movement. (The contrast between thedecline in the world average burden ratio and the upwardshift of countries in this figure probably reflects the upturn inthe burden ratio of developing countries cited above, as wellas the distinction between weighted and simple average ratiosnoted in the box, above. The burden ratio is weighted byGNP while the country locations in Figure 19 are unweight-ed).

The ME/CGE Ratio

The percentage of central government expenditures spenton defense (ME/CGE) is another useful measure of militaryeffort. It complements the ME/GNP ratio and can show a dif-fering comparative burden level from the latter, since ratiosof CGE to GNP vary considerably (see Figure 18, last col-umn). Thus, for example, ratios for ME/CGE in 1995 rangedfrom almost 24% in the Middle East to just over 5% inCentral America (Figure 18, column three and Table 12).

The world average share of central government expen-ditures spent on the military was 10% in 1995, also the low-est level of the decade for this ratio. This drop occurred inthe developed countries, whose ME/CGE ratio fell slightly tojust over 9%. This continues a decade-long downward trendfrom ratios of the early years of the decade as high as 18%.The ME/CGE ratio for developing countries, on the otherhand, fell to a low of under 12% in 1993 but has turned backup to 13% in 1995.

Four regions—Middle East (24%), North America(16%), South Asia (15%), and North Africa (11%)—hadratios of 10% or higher in 1995. Ratios of the remainingregions ranged from 9% to 5%.

Over the decade, ratios fell for all regions of the worldexcept South America and Central Asia, which had smallincreases between 1993 and 1995. The largest decline inME/CGE was recorded by Eastern Europe, 22 percentagepoints. The change over the decade in the Middle Easternratio was also high (9 percentage points), as was North Africa

(just under 9 points), and North America (slightly over 7). Inthe Middle East, the 1991 Gulf War high-point reached theastounding (weighted) average of 51%, and for some coun-tries (Kuwait, United Arab Emirates), the ratio soared wellabove 100% (due to external war-cost repayments).

The countries with the five highest ME/CGE ratios,Bosnia and Herzegovina, Yemen, Russia, Mozambique, andSerbia and Montenegro—all listed as "not available" in MainTable I—are based on very rough estimates of the absolutevalues.

ME per Capita

The military expenditures per capita ratio, anothercomplementary measure of military burden or effort, alsoshows a wide gap between developed and developing coun-tries (Figure 18, column four). The gap amounted to $536 in1995 when the measure averaged $580 for developed and

$44 for developing countries. This gap has narrowed steadi-ly over the decade, with the ratio falling faster for developedcountries. The world average in 1995 was $152 per capita.

In 1995, North America led the world’s regions interms of this ratio with $750, followed at a distance byWestern Europe ($449) and Oceania ($348). The lowestratios were recorded by Subsaharan Africa ($7), South Asia($11), and Central America ($20).

The four top countries with military expenditures percapita of over $1,000 in 1995 were Kuwait ($1,919), Israel($1,646), Singapore ($1,191) and the United States ($1,056).In stark contrast, 38 countries in 1995 spent under $10 (andas little as $2) per capita on their military establishments,including Subsaharan African countries but also such signifi-cant military powers as India and Vietnam (CountryRankings).

ME/AF Ratio

Military expenditures per member of the armed forces(ME/AF) is a different kind of relative indicator. Rather thanburden, it measures the level of armament and military effortper soldier (to the extent that the dollar values of militaryexpenditures, usually exchange-rate-converted, succeed inmeasuring that effort accurately).

In terms of this indicator, developed countries in 1995(averaging $87,100) exceeded the developing countries(averaging $13,000) by roughly 7 times, with a differencebetween the two groups of $74,100 (Figure 18, column five).

In 1995, the highest regional ratios were again record-ed by North America ($155,100) and Oceania ($120,800).Western Europe had a ME/AF ratio of $62,900 in 1995while all other regions recorded ratios below $50,000. Thelowest was Subsaharan Africa's $3,800.

Twelve countries spent over $100,000 per soldier in1995, including Japan, which topped the list at $209,400.The twelve also included seven Western European countries,the United States, Canada, and Australia. Kuwait—rankedsecond in the world with $174,400—was the only develop-ing nation in this grouping. In contrast, the lowest includedZaire, with under $400 (except for several countries with nomilitary spending; see Country Ranking.)

Arms Trade/Total Trade

The world average ratio of arms trade to total traderose slightly from 1994 to 1995, to 0.7%. This increasemarks a switch from the steady decline of this ratio over thedecade, after peaking at 2.7% in 1985. In terms of its four

main components, this ratio looks as follows (in percent;Main Table I):

Arms exports/total exports:

1985 3.2 0.9Peak 3.2 (`85) 1.5 (`88)1995 .8 .2

Over the decade, all four of the above component ratios werereduced by two-thirds or more, and each peak was recordedduring the early years of the decade, 1985-1988.

The Middle East imported the highest amount of armsas a percentage of its total imports (AI/TI) in 1995, 9.7%,compared to a ratio of almost 22% in 1985. Central Asiarecorded the next highest AI/TI ratio, with 3.2%, followedby South Asia with 1.9%. South Asia, the Middle East,Subsaharan Africa, North Africa, and Central Americareduced their ratios substantially over the decade, each by 10percentage points or more from the peak year to 1995.South Asia experienced the largest decline, with almost 20percentage points less in 1995 than in 1989, along with boththe Middle East and Subsaharan Africa, down 18 and 17points, respectively, from peaks in 1987.

Six nations recorded AI/TI ratios of over 10% in1995, topped by Bosnia and Herzegovina, although again, itsranking is based on highly estimated absolute values.Bosnia was followed by four Middle East countries—SaudiArabia (31%), Egypt (16%), Kuwait (12%), and Oman(11%)—and Burma (10.5%).

In terms of exports, Eastern Europe had the highestratio of arms exports as a percentage of total exports(AE/TE) in 1995, with a ratio of 2.1%. This ratio compareswith 12.2% in 1985, down about ten percentage points.

North America recorded the next highest ratio, 1.9%. Allother regions recorded AE/TE ratios of 1% or less during1995. Nicaragua led all countries in this ratio, with slightlyunder 8%.

Other Indicators

GNP per capita for the world as a whole rose by 1%in 1995 to $5,459. This is the second consecutive rise forthis ratio after having fallen steadily from a peak of $5,634in 1989 through 1993. Both the developed and developingcountry groupings continued an upward trend in 1995, grow-ing by 1.4% and 2.9%, respectively. Over the decade, GNPper capita grew by $3,470 for developed countries and byalmost $400 for developing countries (Main Table I). Smalldeclines in the average were registered in 1995 by EasternEurope, Central Asia and Caucasus, Middle East, NorthAfrica, and Subsaharan Africa.

North America ($20,800), Western Europe ($19,500),and Oceania ($15,300) continue to be the richest regions ofthe world. South Asia (with $358 per capita) andSubsaharan Africa ($417) had the lowest average ratios.

E Estimate based on partial or uncertain data. NA Not available. P Estimate based on PPP (see Statistical Notes).R Rough Estimate (see Statistical Notes). 0 Nil or negligible.

a In order to reduce distortions in the trends for world, region, and organization totals caused by data gaps for individual countries and years (shown as "NA"), rough approximations for all gaps are included in the totals.

b Estimated by adding arms imports to data on military expenditures, which are believed to exclude arms purchases. However, it should be noted that the value of arms deliveries in a given year, as shown in Table II (converted at current exchange rates), may differ significantly from actual expenditures on arms imports in that year.

c This ratio is calculated from the dollar values shown in previous columns. In most cases it also is equal to the ratio that could be calculated from national currency values, since both numerator and denominator are usually converted into dollars by the same exchange rate or other conversion factor. In the case of this country, however, the two variables are converted at differing rates, yielding a different ratio than would obtain in national currency. The ratio for Russia in rubles terms, for example, is believed to be less than 10 percent in 1995. See Statistical Notes, Military Expenditures-to-GNP Ratio for further discussion.

d This series or entry is believed to omit a major share of total military expenditures, probably including most expenditures on arms procurement. Table II shows estimated annual arms imports; it should be kept in mind, however, that data in Table II represent the estimated value of arms delivered in a given year, not actual expenditures on those arms.

e Germany, (The Federal Republic of), was known as West Germany through 1990, when data for East Germany ended.

f Some part of estimated total military expenditures may not be included in announced central budget expenditures. The ratio of ME to CGE therefore may be overstated.

g Unified Yemen as of 1990 is shown under Yemen (Sanaa); data for Yemen (Aden) end in 1989.

E Estimate based on partial or uncertain data. 0 Nil or negligible ($2.5 million or less). NA Not available.

a To avoid the appearance of excessive accuracy, arms transfer data by country are rounded, with greater severity for larger amounts. All country group totals for arms exports and arms imports shown here are the sums of rounded country data, except for world totals, which are the rounded sums of unrounded country data. This exception is made to preserve the equality of world arms exports and world arms imports; the rounded country data produce unequal world summations.

b Total imports and exports usually are as reported by individual countries and the extent to which arms transfers are included is often uncertain. Imports are reported “cif” (including cost of shipping, insurance, and freight) and exports are reported “fob” (excluding these costs). For these reasons and because of divergent sources, world totals for imports and exports are not equal.

c Because some countries exclude arms imports or exports from their trade statistics and their "total" imports and exports are therefore understated and because arms transfers may be estimated independently of trade data, the resulting ratios of arms to total imports or exports may be overstated and may even exceed 100 percent.

d In order to reduce distortions in grouped data trends caused by data gaps for individual countries and years (shown as “NA”), the totals for the world, regions, and organizations include rough approximations for the gaps.

e Includes US transfers to NATO agencies as such and to other international agencies and classified transfers, which are not attributable to individual recipient countries.

f Germany (The Federal Republic of) was known as West Germany through 1990, when data for East Germany ended.

g Includes major equipment purchased by the US Army Corps of Engineers for use in military construction projects in Saudi Arabia, recorded in US accounts as US imports.

h US arms exports data shown in the last two editions has been revised upward substantially from previous editions, as have US arms imports in the last five editions. (See Statistical Notes, Redefinition of US Arms Exports, Arms Imports.)

i The Yemens became unified on May 22, 1990. Arms purchases made by unified Yemen following this date are shown under Yemen (Sanaa).

@ Developed country (all others are “developing”). # OPEC country X Not applicable.0 Nil or negligible ($2.5 million or less), except that where "Supplier" (other than U.S.) and "Recipient" are single

countries, "0" may mean: $50 million or less. (See last line of the table for total amount not distributed by individual recipient.)

NOTE: To avoid the appearance of excessive accuracy, the entries in this table are independently rounded, with greater severity for larger numbers. Totals here are the sum of the rounded components.

a Comparable totals in Tables III and IV do not agree precisely due to the fact that rounding was done at different stages of aggregation.

b US arms transfers to the World, Developed, and Developing groupings include transfers to NATO agencies as such and to other international agencies and classified transfers, which are not attributed to individual recipient countries or regions.

c Includes major equipment purchased by the US Army Corps of Engineers for use in military construction projects in Saudi Arabia, recorded in US accounts as imports to the US. These purchases, not attributable to individual supplier countries, are included under "Others".

Coverage and Groups of Countries

The statistical tables report data for 172 countries(167 in 1995), including most members of the UnitedNations as well as nonmembers Switzerland and Taiwan.UN members not covered are generally small and not con-sidered militarily significant; relevant data for them are fre-quently unavailable.1

Countries are grouped into normally defined geo-graphical regions with the following exceptions: Egypt isassigned to the Middle East rather than to Africa; andOceania includes only Australia, New Zealand, Papua NewGuinea, and Fiji. Note the following redefined and newregions beginning with WMEAT 1993-1994: Mexico hasbeen added to Canada and the United States to form NorthAmerica in the “NAFTA” sense; Central America and theCaribbean and South America replace Latin America;Central Asia and the Caucasus contains eight republicsfrom the former Soviet Union (since 1992); WesternEurope consists of NATO Europe plus Austria, Finland,Ireland, Malta, Sweden, and Switzerland; Eastern Europecontains the former Warsaw Pact countries plus Albaniaand the successors to Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union,except those republics from the latter that are detached toCentral Asia and Caucasus. A full listing of specific coun-tries in each region may be found in Main Statistical TableIII (pages 151 - 155).

The following political and economic groups areincluded: NATO, the (former) Warsaw Pact, OPEC, and

OECD. NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) con-sists of Belgium, Canada, Denmark, France, WestGermany, Greece, Iceland, Italy, Luxembourg, theNetherlands, Norway, Portugal, Spain, Turkey, the UnitedKingdom, and the United States. Spain joined in 1982, andits membership has since been reaffirmed. Although itsparticipation is limited and still evolving, Spain has beenincluded in the NATO grouping since WMEAT 1991-1992.France also limits its military participation (since 1966), butis traditionally associated with NATO and is thereforeincluded in the group. The Warsaw Pact was formally dis-solved on July 1, 1991. It consisted of Bulgaria,Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, Romania,and the Soviet Union. OPEC (Organization of PetroleumExporting Countries) includes Algeria, Gabon, Indonesia,Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, theUnited Arab Emirates, and Venezuela. OECD(Organization for Economic Cooperation andDevelopment) comprises the NATO countries andAustralia, Austria, Czech Republic, Finland, Hungary,Ireland, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Sweden, andSwitzerland.

The 33-country developed group was revised in the1995 edition (primarily on the basis of GNP per capita) byshifting the Czech and Slovak Republics, Greece, Israel,Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan from the developinggroup to the developed, and Romania from developed todeveloping. The developed group in this edition includesthe following countries: all Western Europe except Maltaand Turkey; in Eastern Europe, all former Warsaw Pactmembers (including Czechoslovakia’s successors andRussia) except Bulgaria, Romania, and the successor statesto the Soviet Union other than Russia; in East Asia, Japan,Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan; in Oceania, Australiaand New Zealand; and Israel and South Africa. The specif-ic countries in each region classed as developed are so des-ignated in Main Statistical Table III (pages 151 - 155).

All other countries are classified as developing.Besides the newly independent and transitioning economiesexcept Russia coming out of the Soviet Union andYugoslavia, this developing group includes: the other

Statistical Notes

These notes define the country groupings and variables employed in the Statistical Tables, identify the sources ofinformation, and explain the methods of handling data. A primary aim is to inform the reader of the main qualifica-tions to the data, much of which is not as accurate and reliable as uniform presentation in statistical tables mayimply. This is particularly true of the data on military expenditures, armed forces, and arms tranfers, which inmany countries are subject to severe limitations of incompleteness, ambiguity, or total absence due to governmentalsecrecy.

1 The UN member countries as of 1995 not covered are Andorra,Antigua and Barbuda, the Bahamas, Comoros, Dominica,Grenada, Liechtenstein, Maldives, Marshall Islands, Micronesia,Monaco, Montserrat, Palau, Saint Christopher and Nevis, SaintLucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, San Marino,Seychelles, Solomon Islands, Vanuatu, and Western Samoa.Also excluded are: nonmember countries Kiribati, Nauru,Tonga, and The Holy See; the territory with unresolved sover-eignty of Western Sahara; the dependencies and areas of specialsovereignty of Bermuda, Hong Kong, Macau, Puerto Rico, andnumerous others, many being very small islands in the Atlanticand Pacific Oceans.

recently or presently communist countries of Albania,Bulgaria, Cambodia, Mainland China, Cuba, Laos,Mongolia, North Korea, Romania, and Vietnam; all coun-tries in: Africa except South Africa, Central Asia andCaucasus, Central America and the Caribbean, SouthAmerica, South Asia, and the Middle East except Israel; therest of East Asia other than Japan, Singapore, South Korea,and China Taiwan; Fiji and Papua New Guinea in Oceania;and Malta and Turkey in Western Europe.

Most of the data are for calendar years. For somecountries, however, expenditure data are available only forfiscal years which diverge from calendar years. In suchcases, the fiscal year which contains the most months of agiven calendar year is assigned to that year; e.g., data forthe fiscal year April 1994 through March 1995 would beshown under 1994. Data for fiscal years ending on June 30are normally entered under the calendar year in which theyend.

Sources and Definitions

Military Expenditures

For NATO countries, military expenditures are fromNATO publications and are based on the NATO definition.In this definition, (a) civilian-type expenditures of thedefense ministry are excluded and military-type expendi-tures of other ministries are included; (b) grant militaryassistance is included in the expenditures of the donor coun-try; and (c) purchases of military equipment for credit areincluded at the time the debt is incurred, not at the time ofpayment.

For other non-communist countries, data are general-ly the expenditures of the ministry of defense. When theseare known to include the costs of internal security, anattempt is made to remove these expenditures. A wide vari-ety of data sources is used for these countries, including thepublications and data resources of other US governmentagencies, standardized reporting to the United Nations bycountry, and other international sources.

It should be recognized by users of the statisticaltables that the military expenditure data are of uneven accu-racy and completeness. For example, there are indicationsor reasons to believe that the military expenditures reportedby some countries consist mainly or entirely of recurring oroperating expenditures and omit all or most capital expendi-tures, including arms purchases. In the case of several coun-tries (Algeria, Chile, Cuba, Ecuador, Egypt, Iraq, Iran,Libya, Nigeria, and Syria), special note of this possibility ismade in Table I.

In some of these cases (as indicated in the footnotesof Table I), it is believed that a better estimate of total mili-

tary expenditures is obtained by adding to nominal militaryexpenditures the value of arms imports (as shown in TableII and converted to local currency by current exchangerates). It must be cautioned, however, that this method mayover- or underestimate the actual expenditures in a givenyear due to the fact that payment for arms may not coincidein time with deliveries, which the data in Table II reflect.Also, arms acquisitions in some cases may be financed by,or consist of grants from, other countries.

In Statistical Table I, the symbol “E” denotes roughestimates such as those described above and others made onthe basis of partial or uncertain data. In a few cases of par-ticular interest, very rough estimates are also shown,marked with the symbol “R”. It should be understood thatthese estimates are based on scant information and are sub-ject to a wide range of error.

For countries that have major clandestine nuclear orother military weapons development programs, such as Iraq,estimation of military expenditures is extremely difficultand especially subject to errors of underestimation.

Further improvements in the quality of the militaryexpenditure data presented for countries throughout theworld will be difficult to achieve without better reporting bythe countries themselves. As has been noted elsewhere,“There is growing evidence that important amounts of secu-rity expenditures may not enter the accounts or the nationalbudgets of many developing countries.”2 Among the mech-anisms commonly used to obscure such expenditures are:double-bookkeeping, use of extra-budgetary accounts, high-ly aggregated budget categories, military assistance, andmanipulation of foreign exchange.

Particular problems arise in estimating the militaryexpenditures of communist countries due to the exceptionalscarcity and ambiguity of released information. As in pasteditions of this publication, data on the military expendi-tures of the Soviet Union are based on Central IntelligenceAgency (CIA) estimates. For most of the series, these areestimates of what it would cost in the United States in dol-lars to develop, procure, staff, and operate a military forcesimilar to that of the Soviet Union.3 Estimates of thistype—that is, those based entirely on one country’s pricepattern—generally overstate the relative size of the second

country’s expenditures in intercountry comparisons.4 Also,such estimates are not consistent with the methods usedhere for converting other countries’ expenditures into dol-lars.5

Nevertheless, the basic CIA estimates are the bestavailable for present purposes; in fact, there are no alterna-tive estimates that can inspire confidence and have the capa-bility to detect relatively small changes over time, such asthe slowdown and decline in Soviet military spending thatthe CIA estimates have indicated. Soviet estimates for themost recent years are based on the change in the index ofCIA-estimated military expenditures in ruble terms, asreported in the Joint Economic Committee of Congressseries, Allocation of Resources in the Soviet Union andChina, op. cit.

For Russia, estimated military spending trends inrubles are used in conjunction with dollar estimates for ear-lier years to make very rough estimates of spending in dol-lars. (See also the section on the ME/GNP ratio, below.)

For former Warsaw Pact countries other than theSoviet Union, the estimates of military expendituresthrough 1989 are from Thad P. Alton et al.6 These esti-mates cover the officially announced state budget expendi-tures on national defense and thus understate total military

expenditures to the extent of possible defense outlays bynon-defense agencies of the central government, local gov-ernments, and economic enterprises. Possible subsidizationof military procurement may also cause understatement.The dollar estimates were derived by calculating pay andallowances at the current full US average rates for officersand for lower ranks. After subtraction of pay andallowances, the remainder of the official defense budgets innational currencies was converted into dollars at overallrates based on comparisons of the various countries’ GNPsexpressed in dollars and in national currencies. The ratesare based in part on the purchasing power parities (PPPs)estimated by the International Comparison Project of theUnited Nations, including their latest (Phase V) versions.

Estimates for these countries in 1990 and 1991 arebased on total military spending in national currency asreported by the respective governments to the UN (in mostcases) or the IMF. These expenditures in toto are convertedto dollars at the Alton GNP conversion rates for 1989 asadjusted to 1991 by the respective US and national GNPdeflators (per the World Bank), without estimating person-nel compensation separately at US dollar rates, as was donefor earlier years. The resulting military conversion rates (innational currency per dollar) are substantially higher thanthe implied rates for previous years, substantially lower thanthe 1991 market rate, and approximately the same as theimplied rate for GNP (see below).

Estimates for the newly independent states of the for-mer Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia andother former Warsaw Pact countries present difficulties dueto scarcity of reliable data in national currencies and toproblems in converting to dollars. The basic methodemployed for most of these countries was to establish theratio of military expenditures to GNP in national currencyand then to multiply this ratio by the World Bank’s estimateof GNP in dollars as converted to international dollars byestimated PPPs and reported in the World Bank Atlas 1997.This method implicitly converts military spending at theGNP-wide PPP, which, as with conversion by exchangerates, preserves the same ME/GNP ratio in dollars asobtains in national currency.

Data for China are based on US Government esti-mates of the yuan costs of Chinese forces, weapons, pro-grams, and activities.7 Costs in yuan are here converted todollars using the same estimated conversion rate as used forGNP (see below). Due to the exceptional difficulties in

Gross National Product (GNP)

GNP represents the total output of goods and ser-vices produced by residents of a country, valued at marketprices. The source of GNP data for most non-communistcountries is the International Bank for Reconstruction andDevelopment (World Bank).

For a number of countries whose GNP is dominatedby oil exports (Bahrain, Kuwait, Libya, Oman, Qatar, SaudiArabia, and the United Arab Emirates), the World Bank’sestimate of deflated (or constant price) GNP in domesticcurrency tends to understate increases in the monetary valueof oil exports, and thus of GNP, resulting from oil priceincreases. These World Bank estimates are designed tomeasure real (or physical) product. An alternative estimateof constant-price GNP was therefore obtained using theimplicit price deflator8 for US GNP (for lack of a betternational deflator). This is considered appropriate because alarge share of the GNP of these countries is realized in USdollars.

GNP estimates of the Soviet Union are by the CIA,as published in its Handbook of Economic Statistics 1990and updated. GNP estimates for other Warsaw Pact coun-tries through 1989 are from “East European MilitaryExpenditures, 1965-1978” by Thad P. Alton and others, op.cit., as updated and substantially revised by the authors.These estimates through 1989 have been extended to 1990and 1991 on the basis of estimates for those years in theCIA’s Handbook of Economic Statistics, 1992.

Estimates of GNP in 1992-1994 for successor statesto the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia are

based on World Bank estimates of GNP per capita employ-ing PPPs and of population, as published in the World BankAtlas 1997.

GNP data for China are based on World Bank esti-mates in yuan. These are in line with estimates of GDP inWestern accounting terms made by Chinese authorities.Converting estimates in yuan to dollars is highly problemat-ic, however, due to the inappropriateness of the officialexchange rate and lack of sufficient yuan price informationby which to reliably estimate PPPs. (The ratio of the high-est to the lowest estimates by various sources of China’sGNP is on the order of 6 or 7 to 1, which would make theworld rank of China’s GNP vary between about 3rd or 4thand 12th.) The conversion rate used here is based on a PPPestimated for 19819 and moved by respective US and Chinaimplicit GNP deflators to 1994.

GNP estimates for a few non-communist countriesare from the CIA’s Handbook of Economic Statistics citedabove. Estimates for the other communist countries arerough approximations.

Military Expenditures-to-GNP Ratio

It should be noted that the meaning of the ratio ofmilitary expenditures to GNP, shown in Table I, differssomewhat between most communist (or previously commu-nist) and other countries. For non-communist countries,both military expenditures and GNP are converted from thenational currency unit to dollars at the same exchange rate;consequently, the ratio of military expenditures to GNP isthe same in dollars as in the national currency and reflectsnational relative prices. For communist countries, however,military expenditures and GNP are converted differently.Soviet military expenditures, as already noted, are estimatedin a way designed to show the cost of the Soviet armedforces in US prices, as if purchased in this country. On theother hand, the Soviet GNP estimates used here aredesigned to show average relative size when both US andSoviet GNP are valued and compared at both dollar andruble prices. The Soviet ratio of military expenditures toGNP in ruble terms, the preferred method of comparison, isestimated to have been 15-18% in that country's latest years.

The estimated ratio for Russia derived here in dollarsis probably somewhat overstated, since military spending indollars is related to earlier estimates for the Soviet Union,

8 The implicit price deflator is the ratio of GNP in current prices to GNP in constant prices.

This PPP appears to be carefully con-structed from detailed Chinese data and yields an intermediateresult. When moved to 1993, this parity (1.293 yuan/dollar) isused to produce dollar values in the same manner as the 1993exchange rate for other countries. (See below, Conversion ofNational Currencies to Dollars.)

while GNP estimates (at PPPs) are by the World Bank.Russia’s burden ratio in ruble terms is preferably estimatedto be under 10%.

For Eastern European countries before 1992, theratios of military expenditures to GNP in dollars were abouttwice the ratios that would obtain in domestic currencies.(See Alton and others, op. cit.) However, since official mil-itary budgets in these countries probably substantiallyunderstated their actual military expenditures, the largerratios based on dollar estimates are believed to be the betterapproximations of the actual ratios.

Central Government Expenditures (CGE)

These expenditures include current and capital(developmental) expenditures plus net lending to govern-ment enterprises by central (or federal) governments. Amajor source is the International Monetary Fund’sGovernment Finance Statistics Yearbook. The categoryused here is “Total Expenditures and Lending minusRepayment, Consolidated Central Government”.

Other sources for these data are the InternationalMonetary Fund, International Financial Statistics (month-ly); OECD, Economic Surveys; and CIA, The WorldFactbook (annual). Data for Warsaw Pact countries arefrom national publications and are supplied by Thad P.Alton and others. For all Warsaw Pact countries and China,conversion to dollars is at the implicit rates used for calcu-lating dollar estimates of GNP.

For all countries, with the same exceptions as notedabove for the military expenditures-to-GNP ratio, militaryexpenditures and central government expenditures are con-verted to dollars at the same rate; the ratio of the two vari-ables is thus the same in dollars as in national currency.

It should be noted that for the Soviet Union, China,Iran, Jordan, and possibly others, the ratio of militaryexpenditures to central government expenditures may beoverstated, inasmuch as the estimate for military expendi-tures is obtained at least in part independently of nominalbudget or government expenditure data, and it is possiblethat not all estimated military expenditures pass through thenominal central government budget.

Population

Population estimates are for midyear and are madeavailable to ACDA by the US Bureau of the Census.

Armed Forces

Armed forces refer to active-duty military personnel,including paramilitary forces if those forces resemble regu-lar units in their organization, equipment, training, or mis-sion. Reserve forces are not included unless specificallynoted.

Figures for the United States and all other NATOcountries are as reported by NATO. Estimates of the num-ber of personnel under arms for other countries are providedby US Government sources. The armed forces series for theSoviet Union includes all special forces judged to havenational security missions (e.g., KGB border guards) andexcludes uniformed forces primarily performing noncom-batant services (construction, railroad, civil defense, andinternal security troops).

Arms Transfers

Arms transfers (arms imports and exports) representthe international transfer (under terms of grant, credit,barter, or cash) of military equipment, usually referred to as“conventional,” including weapons of war, parts thereof,ammunition, support equipment, and other commoditiesdesigned for military use. Among the items included aretactical guided missiles and rockets, military aircraft, navalvessels, armored and nonarmored military vehicles, com-munications and electronic equipment, artillery, infantryweapons, small arms, ammunition, other ordnance, para-chutes, and uniforms. Dual use equipment, which can haveapplication in both military and civilian sectors, is includedwhen its primary mission is identified as military. Thebuilding of defense production facilities and licensing feespaid as royalties for the production of military equipmentare included when they are contained in military transferagreements. There have been no international transfers ofpurely strategic weaponry. Military services such as train-ing, supply operations, equipment repair, technical assis-tance, and construction are included where data are avail-able. Excluded are foodstuffs, medical equipment, petrole-um products and other supplies.

Redefinition of US Arms Exports. The scope of USarms exports data was modified in the WMEAT 1995 edi-tion. These exports include both government-to-governmenttransfers under the Foreign Military Sales (FMS), MilitaryAssistance Program (MAP), and other programs adminis-tered by the Department of Defense, and commercial (enter-prise-to-government) transfers licensed by the Departmentof State under International Traffic in Arms Regulations.Under the previous practice, the materiel component (arms,

189

Page 193: World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers 1996 · 2019. 9. 6. · Gulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was by far the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion

equipment, and “hardware” items) of FMS and MAP saleswas included, while the military services component wasexcluded (although the magnitude and general destinationof the omitted services was reported in these StatisticalNotes).

Beginning with the previous edition, both themateriel and the military services components of FMS andother government-to-government sales (such as theInternational Military Education and Training Program—IMET) are included in total US arms exports as reportedhere. The commercial sales category, covering both materieland military services, was included in its entirety.

The omission of FMS and other military servicesprior to the previous edition had been intended to improvecomparability with available estimates of the arms exportsof other countries, which tended to contain a much smallerservices component and/or were subject to significantunderestimation (services being less easily observed). Theincreasing importance of these services and the desire topresent a full picture of US arms exports consistent withother sources prompted the change to inclusion. Usersshould be aware, however, of both the lower true share ofservices in other countries’ arms exports and the tendencyto underestimate them. It should also be noted that a portionof the IMET program is devoted to programs that promoteimproved civil-military relations.

The change in scope of US arms exports increasedtheir overall volume by amounts ranging over the lastdecade from $2.3 billion (current dollars) to $3.7 billion fordeliveries and $2.3 billion to $7.3 billion for agreements.

The statistics contained in Tables II, III and part ofIV are estimates of the value of goods actually deliveredduring the reference year, in contrast both to payments andthe value of programs, agreements, contracts, or orders con-cluded during the period, which are expected to result infuture deliveries. However, summary data on arms transferagreements are presented in part of Table IV. Both deliver-ies and agreements data represent arms transfers to govern-ments and do not include the value of arms obtained by sub-national groups.

Figures for US arms exports are for fiscal years asreported by the US Departments of Defense and State. Dataon US arms export agreements shown in Table IV have thesame coverage as deliveries data. Commercial agreementsare here taken to equal deliveries, since agreements data assuch are not available and data on commercial licensesissued are not considered sufficiently indicative.

US Arms Imports. US arms import data in this andthe previous four editions are revised upward substantiallyfrom earlier editions. The present series consists of dataobtained from the Department of Commerce, Bureau of

Economic Analysis (BEA), including (a) imports of mili-tary-type (formerly “special category”) goods, as compiledby the Bureau of the Census, and (b) Department ofDefense direct expenditures abroad for major equipment, ascompiled from DOD data by BEA. The goods in (a)include: complete military aircraft, all types; engines andturbines for military aircraft; military trucks, armored vehi-cles, etc.; military (naval) ships and boats; tanks, artillery,missiles, guns, and ammunition; military apparel andfootwear; and other military goods, equipment, and parts.

Data on countries other than the United States areestimates by US Government sources. Arms transfer datafor the Soviet Union and other former communist countriesare approximations based on limited information.10

It should be noted that the arms transfer estimates forthe most recent year, and to a lesser extent for several pre-ceding years, tend to be understated. This applies to bothforeign and US arms exports. In the former case, informa-tion on transfers comes from a variety of sources and issometimes acquired and processed with a considerable timelag. In the US case, commercial arms transfer licenses arenow valid for three years, causing a delay in the reporting ofdeliveries made on them to statistical agencies. Data for themost recent two years in Main Statistical Tables II, III, andIV therefore can be expected to undergo some upward revi-sion in succeeding editions.

Close comparisons between the estimated valuesshown for arms transfers and for GNP and military expendi-tures are not warranted. Frequently, weapons prices do notreflect true production costs. Furthermore, much of theinternational arms trade involves offset or barter arrange-ments, multiyear loans, discounted prices, third party pay-ments, and partial debt forgiveness. Acquisition of arma-ments thus may not [necessarily] impose the burden on aneconomy, whether in the same or in other years, that isimplied by the estimated equivalent US dollar value of theshipment. Therefore, the value of arms imports should becompared to other categories of data with care.

Total Imports and Exports

The values for imports and exports cover merchan-dise transactions and come mainly from InternationalFinancial Statistics published by the IMF. The trade figuresfor presently and formerly communist countries are fromthe CIA's Handbook of Economic Statistics, 1996 edition.

10 Soviet arms transfers and foreign trade data are taken fromsources that present them directly in dollars; hence, particularcaution should be used in comparing these statistics for armstransfers and foreign trade with other Soviet data.

Estimates for “NAs”

The "NA" entries in the Main Statistical Tables for agiven country/variable/year signify that data considered suf-ficiently valid and reliable for presentation as such is notavailable. However, in all such cases, a rough or approxi-mative estimate has been made and is used in aggregativeestimates for the world, region, or other country group.This is done in order that the absence of data for a givencountry/year/variable not distort group totals unduly, and topermit the inclusion of the country in a ranking. Such "fill"estimates are based on a variety of grounds, such as avail-able fragmentary information, previous trends, or assump-tions as to the relationships between known and unknownvariables.

Conversion of National Currencies to Dollars

All value data in the report are expressed in US dol-lars. For most countries, this requires the conversion intodollars of amounts expressed in national currencies at cur-rent (or “then-year”) prices. Available methods for doingso are less than satisfactory in all respects. The approachadopted in this series of reports relies on market or parexchange rates. In this method, current-price national cur-rency data for an entire series of years is converted to cur-rent US dollars through the use of a single (base-year)exchange rate and two price indexes, one national and oneUS.

Basic Steps

The conversion approach used here consists essen-tially of three steps:

a) Each country’s data, expressed originally in the nation-al currency and at current prices, are “deflated” or putinto constant-price terms, usually by means of thecountry’s implicit deflator for GNP as a whole. ThisGNP price index is used also for other variables—mili-tary and central government expenditures—becausemore appropriate price indices for those sectors are notgenerally available. National currency data for allyears are expressed in prices of the conversion baseyear (1995 in this issue).

b) These data are then divided by the average exchangerate in the base year between the national currency andthe US dollar and thus converted into constant base-year (1995) dollars. Exchange rates are provided bythe World Bank and are usually the annual averagepar/market rate, (the “rf” rate as designated by theInternational Monetary Fund).

c) Data in constant dollars are then expressed in currentdollars by multiplying by the US implicit GNP deflator.

The calculation may be illustrated by an example,assuming the following data:

1985 national military expenditures, in nationalcurrency at current (1985) prices..........................4,600

1985 implicit GNP deflators (1995 = 100):National..................................................................55.5US..........................................................................77.7

1995 exchange rate, national currency unitsper dollar..............................................................15.92

Then, 1985 national military expenditures:

In constant 1995 dollars = 4,600 ¸ .555 ¸ 15.92 = 520.6In current (1985) dollars = 520.6 x .777 = 404.5

Advantages and Disadvantages

The use in this report of the same rate for convertingall variables from national currencies to US dollars (withthe exceptions noted below) means that the relationshipsamong variables in national currency terms remain the samewhen those variables are expressed in dollars.

The conversion method used here has an advantagein that it takes into account national differences in thebehavior of prices and, within each edition, avoids the dis-torting effect that can result from changes in exchange ratesduring the decade. It does not, however, allow for a numberof other factors. One is that any within-country differencesbetween the price indices for military or central governmentexpenditures and for GNP are not taken into account. Forexample, indices for compensation of military personnel orprices of imported arms might behave differently from theoverall index.

A more serious problem is that exchange rates inmany cases do not adequately reflect the relative purchasingpower of currencies. This has been demonstrated by adetailed study of purchasing power parities (PPPs) for theGNPs of a large number of countries.11 This study foundthat the greater the disparity in the per capita income ofcountries, the greater the tendency for exchange rates tounderstate the value of the poorer country’s product, andthat the understatement can be very large, reaching as much

11 These PPPS have been estimated by the United NationsInternational Comparisons Project, a cooperative undertaking ofthe United Nations, the World Bank, and the University ofPennsylvania. See Irving Kravis, Alan Heston. and RobertSummers, World Product and Income: InternationalComparisons of Real Gross Product, published for the WorldBank by the Johns Hopkins University Press, Baltimore andLondon, 1982.

Page 195: World Military Expenditures and Arms Transfers 1996 · 2019. 9. 6. · Gulf War. The United States (96% of the region) was by far the largest spender in the world, its $278 billion

as threefold in some cases. However, since this study didnot estimate PPPs for military expenditures as such, it doesnot shed much light on how PPPs specific to militaryexpenditures or arms purchases might differ from exchangerates or from either overall or other sector-specific PPPs.12

A disadvantage of the method used here in WMEATis that the resulting conversion to current dollars for a givenyear can vary from edition to edition, despite the absence ofany change in data for that year itself. The change is duesolely to the rolling up of the exchange rate base year so asto make it more up-to-date, which usually means a changein the exchange rate used.

Such changes have been exceptionally large and fre-quent recently. This was due to two major factors: (1) thechange from an appreciating and overvalued US dollar(until 1985) to a depreciating one and (2) the very highinflation rates and concomitantly large exchange rate move-ments occurring in a number of developing countries,together with the tendency of the exchange rate changes toundercompensate or overcompensate for relative pricemovements.

For a discussion of the extent of the changes andtheir impact on inter-country comparisons and group aver-ages, see WMEAT 1988, pp. 135-136. The changes inexchange rates have not been as extensive in recent years,except for the growing number of high inflation countries.

Exceptions

There are several exceptions to the general conver-sion procedures discussed above. Data on arms transfers invalue terms for all countries obtained by this Agency arealready expressed in current dollars. (Original data in for-eign currencies have generally been converted by the sourceat current exchange rates.) These current dollars are con-verted to constant 1995 dollars in the manner shown above.For the Soviet Union, GNP estimates in rubles are convert-ed by the source into constant dollars at what is in effect anaverage US-and-Soviet-weighted PPP for GNP as a whole.This same conversion rate is also used for Soviet centralgovernment expenditures. Soviet military expenditures arein effect converted by the source at a military-sector PPPusing only Soviet weights. (See also the discussion ofMilitary Expenditures, above).

For other Warsaw Pact countries and China, theavailable estimates for GNP and military expenditures are

also already in terms that accounted for domestic pricechanges and have been converted to constant dollars usingestimated purchasing power parities, rather than officialexchange rates.

For successor states to the Soviet Union, Yugoslavia,and Czechoslovakia and other former Warsaw Pact coun-tries, GNP in dollars is based on estimates of GNP per capi-ta converted at PPPs and published by the World Bank in itsWorld Bank Atlas 1997. Other variables are converted todollars by multiplying a ratio of the variable to GNP innational currency by GNP in dollars. This is equivalent tousing the GNP PPP to convert the other variable fromnational currency to dollars.

It should be noted that in all cases the relationshipbetween current and constant dollars in this report is deter-mined entirely by the US GNP deflator index. To facilitatereconversion to other constant-dollar bases if desired, thisindex, rebased here to 1995=100, is as follows:

1985 72.96 1990 87.011986 74.92 1991 90.501987 77.26 1992 92.971988 80.10 1993 95.391989 83.46 1994 97.55

Growth Rates

The average annual rates of real growth shown inTables 1-5 of the Highlights are based on data in constant1995 dollars from Main Tables I and II. The rates are calcu-lated by a least-squares fit to all years of the period of thelog form (to the base 10) of the following “compound inter-est” equation:

Y = A(l + r/100)T,

or

LogY = LogA + Log(l + r/100) x T,

where Y is military expenditures (or other variable) in agiven year, A is the initial value for year 0, T is time inyears, and r is the growth rate in percent. This formula wasused in all cases to provide a consistent measure of changeand is not intended to provide the best fit for projection pur-poses.

12 A United Nations expert group has studied the feasibility ofconstructing purchasing power parities and price indices for mil-itary expenditures (A/40/421, 13 August 1985). However, practi-cal prospects for the future availability of usable military PPPsare poor due to the lack of underlying national data, especiallyon military prices.
