Has this come from one of those calculators? They're really getting up my nose, lately. 'USA doubles defence spending but don't worry, economy fine, infrastructure not crumbling and government totally popular, news fair and balanced.' Meanwhile, Greece to bail-out Germany...

Would that be realistic and how well equiped would my armed forces be?
At that level of spending, and that number of soldiers.... I'd think your tanks would be made by Roll-Royce.It breaks down as $1,901,848 per person, which is a pretty high figure and indicitive of a very well equipped and very modern army.
More like an army that wastes money on gold plated guns and six-figure salaries for every soldier. The point of an army is to fight, not to lounge around in a five-star hotel of a barracks.
Or has a really well trained military and a huge R&D department. Or maybe they maintain a lot of overseas commitments. There are a lot of reasons this number could be so large.
maybe i could make an army of transformers
that would be cool

Yes, we're attempt all sector in our industries to stay active. We give our people a choice, want him go to work in our industry or our Royal Cheona Army? In fact, our 8 millions people has given choice of work when they was in 18 years old. About 4 million of our people prefer working as a soldier, the rest work is in industry.

Yes, that's all well and fine, but how do you equip your troops, build your weaponry, finance your industry, raise your taxes, develop your infrastructure and have enough non-soldiers to keep industry at peak capacity with the vast majority of your viable work force in the armed forces? When you take away 65%, all that is left is the very young, the very very old and those unfit for service. And these an industrial sector work force do not make.
So, how do you do it?

Fortunately, all our military industries, include weaponry industry, are runs well. We have not any problem to equip our troops because we have enough supplies and weapon. If our military industries have a financial problem, we have no way except raise the taxes, and increase selling price of our weapon. That's our way to control our economy and keep it stabilized.
