If you guys really want to or you guys can just wait till the end of the video after you get through all the cool
Military facts, but anyways, let's get started
Let's find out what's great about the militaries of these two nations, so India is one heck of a huge country
And it has one heck of an army now for its available manpower it sits at six hundred and sixteen million people with approximately four
Hundred and eighty nine million six hundred thousand people fit for service for its military personnel
It's roughly four million twenty seven thousand people and active personnel sits at one million three hundred and sixty two thousand five hundred people
With approximately two million eight hundred and forty four thousand people in reserves now Nepal. It's a little bit different
It's got a smaller bunch of people and it's got a smaller military
But it ain't that bad because Nepal has a manpower of roughly fourteen million
six hundred thousand people with approximately 11 million two hundred
Thousand of them fit for service and its current military personnel sits at one hundred and fifty-seven
Thousand with about ninety five thousand being active personnel and about sixty two thousand being reserve personnel
and one thing that's great about these two nations and their militaries is that all of their soldiers are based off of a
Volunteer service and as a matter of fact India is the largest?
Volunteer army in the entire world and as well for both these
Militaries one has to be at least 18 years old before they even join so when it comes to the military
Let's break it down because both of these countries. Do have different divisions of their military. There's like Air Force
There's the actual ground infantry and all that sort of stuff now for the Air Force India has approximately
2102 aircraft strength with about
676 fighter aircraft
809 attack aircraft and out of this fighter strength about
850 seven of them are considered transport aircrafts as for their helicopters strength, it's about
666 with about 16 attack
helicopters
Now Nepal on the other hand it doesn't really have much of an air force because well first of all they don't really need it
And second of all they don't really have the budget for it either
unfortunately and for their aircraft strength it sits at 27 with more on order and out of that 27 about nine of them are
Transport craft and as well their
Helicopter strength sits at 18 also to keep in mind when it comes to their helicopters and their aircraft
They are not really meant for offensive services for example
Helicopters are all based for utility now as for ground forces India has a lot for example
They have approximately four thousand four hundred and twenty six combat tanks
They also have six thousand seven hundred and four armored fighting vehicles and over seven thousand seven hundred pieces of artillery now Nepal
Unfortunately they don't have this sort of hardware. They don't have tanks
They don't have armored fighting vehicles
And they don't have artillery
because well first of all they usually get a lot of these services from India India provides a lot of this for them and
Second of all they really don't have the budget for it because their budget has been stagnant for years and of course when it comes
To a Navy Nepal is a landlocked country, so it has no Navy assets in use now
I know what you thinking you're going okay?
Well if Nepal doesn't have much of an Air Force if doesn't have tanks if it doesn't have any sort of Navy then well
What's the point of it well one thing that's really good about Nepal is it actually has a lot of friends
For example India is one really good friend to Nepal China is another and even the United States on top of that they are
applied by other countries like Russia Pakistan Bangladesh and even, North Korea
And what's great about Nepal is they managed to stay pretty neutral and on good terms with?
Countries that actually don't like each other now what I mentioned budget
We should probably take a look at that for example India spends about
51 to 55 billion US dollars ranking fifth in the world now Nepal like I said
It's remained pretty stagnant through the years and one thing that they are talking about is actually
Updating their military getting things like armored fighting vehicles and tanks
But again the budget is a little bit of a problem because currently their budget sits at about two hundred and seven million US dollars
For their military, and I know you're probably like oh
well They don't have a lot of budgets so how good could their soldiers be well actually their soldiers are really amazing
And although countries like India may have Special Forces units that are world famous like Marcos the Nepali
Gurkhas are among some of the most well trained soldiers in the world if not one of the best as a matter of fact
They're a military group that still carries their traditional knives, and these are called kurkuri knives
which are about 18 inches long and one thing that's great about the Gurkhas is that they are so well trained that the British and
India still recruit them and currently there is only about 200 of them in service today, and as a matter of fact
There's a really old saying that if somebody says well. I'm not afraid of death
They're either lying or their Gurkha as well one thing that we've never talked about here when we talk about
Militaries is that these two countries have really cool mottos with the Indian army being
Serviced before self and the Nepal Army's motto is it's better to die than be a coward
So that is us guys looking at the military strength of these two great countries and although
Nepal may be a small army it does have the same amount of spirit and toughness as its big brother India
