The French Military isn't bad.
Military branches: Army (includes Marines, Foreign Legion, Army Light Aviation), Navy (including naval air), Air Force (including Air Defense), National Gendarmerie Military manpower - military age: 18 years of age (2004 est.) Military manpower - availability: males age 15-49: 14,487,165 (2004 est.) Military manpower - fit for military service: males age 15-49: 12,044,827 (2004 est.) Military manpower - reaching military age annually: males: 394,413 (2004 est.) Military expenditures - dollar figure: $45,238.1 million (2003) Military expenditures - percent of GDP: 2.6% (2003)
Their total expenditure is ahead of the UK and the only two nations spending more are USA and China I believe.
