Military power of China and India

maven.mapping:

The map compares the military capabilities of China and India by showing the scale of their active soldiers, air forces, armored vehicles, artillery and naval fleets.

China clearly fields the larger overall force, especially in personnel, aircraft and naval units, reflecting its long-term investment in expanding and modernizing its military.

India, while smaller in several categories, maintains comparable strength in armored vehicles and keeps one of the world’s largest armies due to the long-standing security challenges on its northern borders.

The numbers mirror the broader military context shaped since the 1962 Sino-Indian War, after which both countries steadily increased their defense capacities to secure the disputed Himalayan frontier and maintain strategic balance in Asia.
