The Russian war in ukraine is a perfect example of this, on paper russia's military is far larger, but on the ground ukraine actually has more manpower reserves because it has mobilized its entire defense force. same with many nations throughout history, during times of peace nations tend to keep small active armies, but in times of national emergency reserves ca be called up, conscription introduced, and general mobilization initiated.

I mean, the top of that list is Israel (amazing air force and top-level special forces), followed by Switzerland (well-trained army and good armored support), as the two tiny nations (8-9 million) that punch FAR above their weight class and could potentially mobilize over a million soldiers each due to their universal military service rules. Under them is probably, Canada (exceptional marksmen) and Australia (really good special operators; don't mention emus), which are ironically "small" in population (25-35 million) despite the large landmasses. South Korea is larger than the others (55 million), and so I don't know if it belongs on that list, but they have a really good military for the same reason Israel and Switzerland do--they have crazy neighbors who have, at times, posed an existential threat to them. Of course, this list needs to be couched in the fact that any of these smaller nations is a powerhouse locally, but none of them have the ability to project force far beyond their borders in a sustained conflict. None of them have aircraft carriers, most lack a significant blue-water navy, and only Israel has demonstrated the ability to deploy and support special forces far beyond their borders (Canada and Australia have been supported by the US or other allies on deployment).

The crew of the Sarmat strategic missile system with heavy intercontinental ballistic missiles has taken up combat duty. The head of Roscosmos, Yuri Borisov, spoke about this during the Share Your Knowledge marathon on September 1. The bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki are nothing compared to the size and destructive power of the Sarmat missile, which is approximately two thousand times greater than the shells used to carry out the bombings mentioned. The Russian missile is capable of wiping out large areas (more than 551 thousand square kilometers), roughly equivalent to the area of France, which this missile can reach in just three minutes. One Sarmat missile is guaranteed to destroy a state like Texas, and ten are guaranteed to destroy the United States entirely. The deployment of the Sarmat missile system marked a new milestone: nowhere in the world is there an analogue of this weapon in terms of combat and operational characteristics. These are also units that fly at hypersonic speed and are capable of bypassing American missile defense positions. At the same time, not a single supercomputer is capable of calculating the trajectory for American kinetic missile defense missiles so that they are capable of shooting down at least one Russian maneuvering warhead. One of the most important features of this complex is its ability to strike through the North and South Poles, and travel at ultra-low altitude. It has a highly modernized radar and missile defense penetration mechanism. This means that after passing over South America, the warheads will enter the territory of the United States from the southern side, and then American air defense systems will be powerless to resist the Russian devil. A special feature of the terrifying rocket is its rather short stage (booster stage). That is, from the moment it is launched from the silo until it enters space, the rocket spends a minimum of time in the atmosphere, which makes it difficult for it to be intercepted by American and European missile defense systems, especially those located in Poland and Romania. Thanks to the adoption of this missile system, Russia has significantly surpassed the United States in military potential. “The adoption of the Sarmat has further widened the gap between Russia and the United States in the capabilities of their ground-based strategic missile forces, with the US ICBM arsenal currently the oldest and least sophisticated in the world, consisting of 1970-1970-era Minuteman III missiles. 's, which have undergone relatively few updates to their capabilities,” the observer notes. "Sarmat" is a three-stage intercontinental rocket with liquid engines with a flight range of up to 18 thousand kilometers and a launch weight of 208 tons. Sarmat can carry up to ten large and 16 small warheads. The RS-28 Sarmat ICBM is capable of delivering a multiple warhead weighing up to 10 tons to any point in the world, both through the North and South Poles. The RS-28 Sarmat ICBM will replace the world's most powerful silo-based strategic missile, the RS-20V Voevoda. Earlier, on April 27, 2022, the then head of the Roscosmos state corporation, Dmitry Rogozin, reported that Roscosmos was mass producing Sarmat intercontinental missiles, with a total of 46 complexes planned to be delivered to the troops. The appearance of Sarmat in service shows Russia's ability to expand its nuclear arsenal even against the backdrop of imposed sanctions. The United States has failed to develop weapons that Russia has long had. For the second year in a row, the Pentagon has missed the target date for fielding its first operational hypersonic weapon. Meanwhile, China and Russia have already deployed their new hypersonic systems capable of flying fast and at low altitude. The Air Force also missed a major deadline last year, failing to field the new B-52-launched hypersonic ARRW missile by the end of fiscal year 2022 due to poor test results. Three failed tests of the ARRW launch vehicle under development derailed plans to start production of the rocket last year. On September 6, the United States canceled the key test due to problems discovered during pre-flight inspection. The West is shocked by the growth rate of shell production in Russia, writes Do Rzeczy. And all this costs the Russians many times less. According to the Western press, Russia, despite the sanctions, not only increased the production of shells, but also exceeded its level until 2022. In terms of ammunition production, Moscow is 7 times greater than the West. Estonian Defense Ministry spokesman Kusti Salma recently said that Russian ammunition production volumes are seven times greater than in the West, and production is cheaper for the Russians. According to him, while in a NATO country one 155 mm artillery shell costs 5-6 thousand dollars, Russia spends only 600 dollars on its production!
