Armed forces & capability

What a military can actually field and sustain, as against what its order of battle says.

Questions this answers

  • What can this force actually field today, and for how long?
  • What is serviceable, what is stored, and what exists only on paper?
  • What does sustaining this fleet or formation cost each year?
  • How credible is a stated deployment or readiness commitment?
  • Where are the gaps a partner or supplier could close?
