This map layer shows the ratio of the number of heavy weapons systems to the population (2017), classified in five categories.
Heavy weapons are for instance tanks, helicopters, fighter aircraft, submarines and battleships. They are defined as larger machinery that are used in immediate battle and that integrate different military requirements (movement, firepower, etc.) in one system. The ratio of heavy weapons systems to the population permits a comparison of countries.
