According to Global Fire Power 2017 data, Indonesia's military strength is ranked 14th or is the top 15 combat power in the world. The position of Indonesia as the most powerful military country in the 14th position is quite proud because many countries that are known to have great military power are under Indonesian position. A number of countries that are militarily under the position of Indonesia, among others, Israel, Vietnam, Brazil, Taiwan, Iran, Australia, Saudi Arabia, and others. Based on data from Global Fire Power various military aircraft owned by Indonesia amounted to 441 units, 418 tanks, 221 different types of warships, and 435,750 active combat troops.With such great military strength besides placing Indonesia's position in the order of 14 world military forces is also the strongest in Southeast Asia. Countries currently in Southeast Asia include Cambodia, Laos, Myanmar, Thailand, Vietnam, Brunei, Philippines, Malaysia, Singapore, Timor Leste, and Indonesia itself. But in Southeast Asia, Indonesia's military strength is rivaled by Singapore which is the smallest country and its military strength is at number 65 for world rankings. Compared to Indonesia's military strength, the Singapore military is superior to armored vehicles. Singapore has 2,192 armored ranpur while Indonesia has 506 units. For a submarine that is a decisive warship in guarding the sea and war, Singapore has 6 submarines while Indonesia has 2 units. The Singapore military also has 262 artillery arms while Indonesia "only" has 62 units. But what is particularly striking is in the defense budget of 2017. Singapore's defense budget is USD 8.302 million, while Indonesia is USD 5.220.000.000. But in order to achieve independence in terms of weapons production, Indonesia also continues to boost the production of domestic armaments which from year to year continue to show improvement both quality and quantity.
