The world's biggest defence budgets

THE ten biggest defence budgets for 2010 add up to a total of more than $1.1 trillion, according to the latest Military Balance report from the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS), a think-tank. The defence budget of America alone, at $693 billion, accounts for more than 60% of the total. But when defence spending is compared to the overall size of each country's economy, Saudi Arabia tops the list. It spends over 10% of GDP on defence, more than double the proportion spent by America. China ranks second in the world's biggest defence budgets (spending some $76 billion) and also boasts the largest armed forces. Only America, India, Russia and North Korea (not shown) have more than 1m military personnel. Defence budgets have grown since 2005, but the balance of military power may be shifting. Western countries, many of which are engaged in Afghanistan, now face budget constrains and cuts, whilst emerging economies, such as Brazil and China, have increased military spending in line with economic growth.

谁是世界最大的国防预算国

根据国际战略研究所最新的军事平衡报告，2010年国防预算10强合计超过了1.1万亿美元。

单算美国就达6930亿美元，占合计的60%还多。但把国防预算和每个国家的经济规模做一个比较，沙特阿拉伯就拔尖了，占狗的屁的10%还强，是美国的两倍多。

中国占第二，大约是760亿美元，自认为有世界最大规模军事力量，此外只有美国，印度，俄罗斯和北朝鲜（没公布）有超过百万军队。

总的国防预算比2005年增加了，但是军事力量的平衡却有变化。西方国家中的大多数都投身阿富汗战争，面临着预算紧缩和削减，与此同时，像巴西和中国这样的新兴经济体的国防预算，却随着经济的增长而增加。
