11 Feb 15. The Military Balance 2015. The Military Balance 2015 media launch took place today at the International Institute for Strategic Studies’ (IISS) headquarters at Arundel House, London. IISS Director-General and Chief Executive, Dr John Chipman, made a press statement at the event, which was followed by a Q &A with the panel.
The Military Balance 2015 book contains region-by-region analysis of the major military and economic developments affecting defence and security policies, and the trade in weapons and other military equipment. Detailed entries describe the military capabilities of 171 countries, displaying key equipment inventories and defence economics. Comprehensive tables detail arms orders and deliveries, major training activities and international comparisons of defence expenditure and military personnel.
New Features in The Military Balance 2015:
• New country analyses including China, Colombia, France, Israel, Japan, Kenya, Ukraine and the United Arab Emirates, as well as analysis of regional defence and security developments such as ISIS in Syria and Iraq.
• New thematic analytical essays on hybrid warfare, directed-energy weapons and US space systems.
• A new Military Balance Wall Chart, with a focus on Russia’s armed forces.
• New technical equipment-focused graphics, including on the development of Russia’s Flanker combat-aircraft variants, the US Navy’s Zumwalt-class destroyer and Israel’s Merkava IV main battle tank.
• Updated graphics feature on comparative defence statistics, with a focus on defence economics, defence industry and major land, sea and air capabilities.
• Updated national capability summaries.
• A new section detailing ‘observed equipment’ for selected non-state armed groups, including the Peshmerga in northern Iraq, separatist forces in eastern Ukraine and Boko Haram in Nigeria, among others.
• A table of military training exercises, arranged by region.
• New maps on France’s realigned military presence in Africa, the conflict in eastern Ukraine, as well as AMISOM’s Operation Indian Ocean in Somalia. The Military Balance 2015 media launch video is available now to download in full, along with today’s press statement and a summary of key facts from the book.
Two free charts, Top 15 Defence Budgets 2014 and European Defence Spending Changes 2010-14, are also now available on the IISS website, as well as the Editor’s Introduction and the Table of Contents.
