List of countries by military expenditures
This is a list of countries by military expenditures using the latest information available. Some of the information is from the United States' Central Intelligence Agency's World Factbook.
Note that for some countries, no information was available to the World Factbook's compilers; these countries were omitted from the list. Consequently, the total world expenditure on armed forces is likely to be much higher than that given.

Chart by country or organization
Military spending in 2005
Comparisons between figures in this table should be used with caution. There are comparison issues inherent with these figures: for example France includes in its defence expenditure the cost of maintaining the Gendarmerie, which is primarily used for what would be described in the United Kingdom, for example, as an internal police matter. Consequently, there is no corresponding expenditure made in the UK's defence budget.
