Ukraine moves up in world's most powerful armies ranking: Global Firepower study
International company Fire Firepower, which each year ranks the best armies in the world, put Ukraine in 22nd place this year
This is stated on the company's website, Rubryka reports.
In the study, Global Firepower used more than 50 individual factors to measure a country's PowerIndex by categories ranging from military power and finance to logistics and geography.
This rating allows less technologically advanced countries to compete with more developed ones, and special modifiers in the form of bonuses and penalties are used to further improve the annual list.
